Cardinals cleanup hitter Allen Craig to return to the roster for the first time in the postseason.
hansen {l Wrote}:The story of this series can be summed up by this game 6 statistic:
Cards 9 hits, 1 run
Sox 8 hits, 6 runs
That's all I have left to say about this series.

Pretty much. Cards have a non-threatening lineup full of punch and judy singles hitters that can't run and don't take pitches, with the quintessential generic righty .270 hitting slugger that hits cripple pitches.
twballgame9 {l Wrote}:The longer a series goes, the better chance those AL lineups will get to you. The NL advantage in a short series is unknown quality pitching. 7 games is usually short enough to give them a chance, despite the lineup discrepancies, but over time, the AL bats will get you.

i think he was trying to bring a game plan that the redsox were not prepared for. i think he assumed that bringing the same fastball/changeup stuff on such short turnaround would not get it done so he mixed in a lot of curveballs. honestly, i would have like to seem him bring the heat and his deadly changeup. why get beat on your third best pitch.

pick6pedro {l Wrote}:I also want to congratulate Hansen on thinking Red Sox is one word.
hansen {l Wrote}:Unbelievable stat I just read about the series.
"The Red Sox won the World Series by striking out 23 times more than any other team in playoff history. They fanned an average of nearly 10 a game in the World Series with 59 strikeouts in six games and their postseason strikeout average was 9.70 per game."
