It was do or die, Johnson should have pulled Storen out, you could immediately tell he didn't have it and the game was going to be lost. The real culprit/s are the GMs, they shut down Strasburg.
Let me get you some tissues. It looks like you need them.
One of the announcers said this after the game ended......."There is no reason for a Nats Fan to hang their heads"
Really? The saw their team lead 6-0 and felt they were going to the NLCS and they lose but shouldn't hang their head? This is why TBS shouldn't air baseball
Teixera with his third steal of the season. Ibanez with an RBI. Finally some offense.
I have to say how impressed I was by the pitching of both the Yankees and the Orioles in this series. Except for the 9th inning of Game 1, the pitching on both sides was utterly brilliant.
Even though I cheered for the Yankees, I feel bad for the Orioles. They were very worthy opponents. I do believe the Yankees are the better team, but the Orioles were tremendous. They wouldn't give up.
6th straight elimination win for the Cardinals, dating to last year. I forget how many times they have been down to their last strike. Also, 6 runs down is the largest comeback in MLB history in an elimination game.
Now they are up against a team that knows how to win as well. Gonna be an electric NLCS.

I was impressed as well. Glad to see all teams forcing a 5th. Orioles were a formidable opponent but it goes to show that pitching trumps hitting, and in these 5 game series the stress level rises exponentially, I thought CC was losing it there for a minute, he shook it off, regained his composure and threw that much better.

What should the announcer have said? "Well, despite reaching the post season for the first time and leading all of baseball with 98 regular season wins, this loss in the fifth game of the division series cancels all of the Nationals' accomplishments for the year. They should all be deeply ashamed of themselves. If this were a Japanese team they would be going home to belly stick themselves rather than endure the ongoing mortification associated with this humiliating and disgraceful loss."
