Okay, so So Taguchi, who has been brought into games primarily as a defensive substitution recently, is 2 for 2 in the post-season. Thos two hits? Both were home runs.
So isn't the lone reason the Cardinals won tonight. The real key to the Cardinals success was the production from the top and the bottom of the lineup. Pujols bat was finally connecting, Spiezio had a triple and a bunch of other hits, and even Yadier Molina went 3-5 with 2 RBIs. This was the missing element during the slump. Pitchers would go out and throw bad but not awful games, but the Cardinal bats could never, ever bail them out. Even in the NLDS, we had two strong games against the Padres before our bats fell silent. The question now is whether we'll be able to keep this momentum going.
On to St. Louis.
