It should be pointed out that Montreal won the division that year by only * 1/2 * game over the Cardinals. The decision was made to only count the remaining games after the strike and to disregard all previous games. I do not not recall whether the Cardinals lost one more game or Montreal won one more. However, at the beginning of the strike, the Cards were leading the division by about two games.
