The Cardinals can finish off the Dodgers in front of a home crowd tonight in St. Louis, but will need to go through Clayton Kershaw to get there....

5:30pm Arizona time, TBS. Cardinals lead 3-2.
Kershaw vs. Wacha in St. Louis, Take 2. I'm trying to come up some kind of cool name, a la Rumble in the Jungle for this, and failing miserably. Nope, I got nothing. Wouldn't have a problem if the result was something close to the same as in Game 1. By which I mean, I don't give a flying squirrel what the result is, providing the Cardinals win. Obviously, St. Louis are still the favorites, having two chances to clinch the series, but I'm sure that they'd rather have clinched on Wednesday, than have to face the shoo-in for the National League Cy Young award. Still, they've beaten him once, and the crowd will be packed in at Busch tonight, Should be fun,
