Zach's all request blog-line

What a sweet game last eve. Cards get a big win off of excellent starting pitching from Carpenter. No runs, something like 3 hits. Great stuff. I didn't see the first 5 innings because of work but the pitcher for the Tigers made a bad mental error on a ground ball to him. Runners on first and second, one out, and Pujols sent him a little grounder. Instead of tossing it to second then first for the double play, he threw it to third. The third baseman was moving to the base and the toss was way behind him letting two runs score. The announcers later said that a double play going from pitcher to third to second hadn't been successful in a world series since 1929. They really gave him a hard time about it on the air. The play that everyone was expecting was toss it to second where the shortstop and second basemen practice that catch/throw every day to then get the guy at first.
