The Houston Astros loss to the Saint Louis Cardinals in the National League Championship Series last night was cruel. They were on the cusp of victory and had a firm grasp on a ticket to the World Series but were denied in heartbreaking fashion by the last man standing for the Cardinals. You could feel the air sucked out of the stadium when Pujols blasted the ball out of the ball park. It must have felt like a dagger through the heart for the Astros faithful.
I wonder if they can overcome last nights defeat. The mojo is on the Cardinals side for sure. The only thing Astros have going for them are their two top pitchers who are set to take the mound in the next two games. That and the fact that they need to win only one game of the remaining two to reach the World Series.
