As a Cardinal fan I know that I am lucky. My team has more World Series championships than any other National League team and has won more games in the last two years than any other team.
That being said, 0 for 7 in Chicago was pretty sad. It was great to see the Birds respond with a drubbing of the Cubs who have just owned us for two years. Preston Wilson made Walt look like a genuis and the only bad news was Eckstein getting hurt. Of course, we all know Eck was slumping so some time off can't hurt if it's just a couple of weeks.
Now to finish the job by taking 2 of 3 in Chicago and keeping that lead at a minimum of 3.5.
