[net.sport.baseball] St. Louis speed vs. Kansas City power

rsk@pucc-k (Wombat) (10/17/85)

Perhaps the subject line oversimplifies the issue, but it would appear that
we're in for a series similar to the Cards-Brewers matchup a few years back;
the long-ball hitters vs. the jackrabbits.  It should be interesting; as a
native Missourian, I couldn't be more pleased with this series.

I'm calling the Cards in 5; based on their scrappiness, defense, and relief
pitching, and their refusal to quit.

"Do I walk Clark and pitch to that bleep-bleep Van Slyke?"

		--- Tommy Lasorda, manager of the Dodgers, about 60 seconds
		before the Cardinals' Jack Clark blasted a 3-run homer.
