Another Classic Game 6

If something dramatic is going to happen in the World Series it'll usually happen in game six.

I started listening to tonight's game in the bottom of the eighth, when Texas held a 7-4 lead. The St. Louis Cardinals scored one run and left the bases full that inning, missing a huge opportunity.

But then, with his team behind 7-5 and down to his last strike in the ninth, the Cards' David Freese tripled off the wall to drive in two runs and send the game into extra innings.

The Cards again fell behind by two before tying the game in the 10th when they were again down to a last strike, this time on Lance Berkman, who singled in a pair of runners.

In the 11th they were finally able to shut Texas down.

Freese came up in the bottom of the 11th and slammed a walk-off homer into the bleachers.

Ball game.

If something dramatic is going to happen in the World Series, it usually happens in the sixth game.

The series is tied 3-3 with the final game set for tomorrow night in St. Louis.

My, my.
