Didn't see one started so I figured what the hay..especially all the drama and second guessing that occured in game 5.

I only get to see the first half of the games because I work nights. I'm rooting for Texas (hate the Cards) but I'm hoping they stretch to a Game 7 so I can watch a whole game.

Well I have been a Texas fan all my life and after the team getting so close last year I would be shattered if we got that close this year and didnt do it. I think we will finish it tonight. I think the momentum is all in the Ranger's favor right now so hopefully we ride it out to the end.

Well I don't think the Rangers have the momentum anymore.
There was a lot to that game. Many mistakes, but the one that sticks out to me was Cruz's non-catch in the ninth. It looked like he wasn't looking at the ball or the wall. He makes that catch and the game and series is over. Did he not get the memo?

It was a tough ball, I'm not sure what he was doing either, but he was in that weird no-man's land where the ball was hit and the wall.
I don't know if they lost all the momentum, they had chances to put them away (one strike two times), but the did fight hard all game and it was a back and forth thing, it would be more emotionally draining than anything. It'll definitely be interesting to watch this game 7, and I'm just hoping for another good game at this point.
This might be the greatest Series since 2001, it might rival it as far as game play because all but that one game was relatively close, and that series only had 4. Granted the only other series that went to 7 since then was the Giants Angels series, but that one was only a 5 and a half game series as the Giants gave up at the end.

Even though my team was on the loosing end last night i have to say what a game and what a series so far. This could go down as one of the greates World Series of all time. This has been full of drama, some great baseball, some not so good baseball, and some very clutch hitting. This has everything that baseball is about and all that without having the Yankees, Phillies, Red Sox or any of the other big market teams.
We have a team with alot of history in St Louis and a team that is trying to create some history of their own. Win, lose or draw tonight for the Rangers and I still say this was an awesome season and a great series.

Yep. Completely his fault on that ball.
You're taught that if you're gonna be near the fence to get there first and come back to the ball (like Freeze did on that foul ball near 3B dugout last night ). He should've ran through the wall to make that catch and the victory celebration and offseason would give him time to heal his wounds. There is no other way to explain a triple on a play like that.
