But it's a nice start so far considering 2004...besides, it's always good to get the monkey off the back early in the series.
Especially with our biggest question mark of a starter.

Agreed.

I wonder what Duncan said to him after the first inning...

Who knows, maybe he didn't say anything at all...maybe he just gave him his lucky 7-leaf clover.

It'd be nice to steal home field adv.

This is the first WS lead (score) the Cards have had since 87!

Even bigger considering now LaRussa won't feel the need to do something drastic like skipping his next start in favor of a guy on short rest...

Did someone kick the radar gun before the game? It's clearly off by 5-6 mph.

Rodney at 91?

That's what I was saying! It looked like Reyes was sitting at 85-86 on his fastball... I thought he was gonna get SMOKED!

He SMOKED that ball, didn't he? Too bad he didn't get a little more arc on that. :x
