Busch beer..............................the Clydesdales.........in a city in the center of this wretched, piece of shit place.......................................
The
largest paid crowd in the history of Busch Stadium (47,469) saw the
game, surpassing the previous night's record attendance. After Boston
starter Clay Buchholz, pitching through a shoulder injury, was removed
for a pinch-hitter after four innings, five Red Sox relievers combined
to hold St. Louis to one run on three hits the rest of the way. In the
sixth inning, the bases were empty with two outs before Dustin Pedroia
singled and David Ortiz walked. Then, outfielder Jonny Gomes came to bat
and the Cardinals brought in Seth Maness to face him. Gomes worked the
count to 2--2 before he broke the tie with a three-run homer that would
become the difference in the game. The game ended when Boston closer
Koji Uehara picked off pinch runner Kolten Wong with Carlos Beltran at
the plate, making it the first postseason game in baseball history to
end on a pickoff.
