So, if you're on a team, which would make you feel worse:
Getting an infield single to lead off the game, and not get a hit the rest of the game (Cubs).
Or, pounding out 13 hits in the game, and still lose 1-0 (Twins). I guess the Twins even had runners at 2nd and 3rd with one out in the 9th, and the KC pitcher throws a wild pitch back to the backstop. But the pitch bounces right back to the catcher, and the catcher then throws out the runner going back to 3rd. The batter than takes strike three to end the game.
And, how 'bout those history-making Cardinals? First, they let some team who hasn't won a World Series in ninty-some years sweep them in the Series. Then, last night they allow only the second player ever, and the first in over a hundred years, to hit a grand-slam in his first major league at bat. How 'bout them Redbirds!
(Oops, is my Cub bitterness showing? Honest, I'm try to keep it suppressed. Really, I am trying. Really.)
