"Sometimes, the pitcher will throw a pitch that is meant to get a hitter out."

- He'll probably throw the fastball away and strike him out......*pitcher throws fastball outside and serves up a home run*

"This pitch is a prime example of his devastating sinker."

 

(Pitch was at the letters and rising. Oh, and the radar had it at 95, too.)

-The Cardinals got to the NLCS by winning the NLDS.

Did anyone catch McCarver's little slip of the tongue last night, when he referred not to the "Red Sox," but to the
