Not meaning to get picky (allright, mabye I really do), but, since that obvious
screwup was in the 6th game, and the Cards had won 3 games till that point,
then, if the call did cost them the game, it also cost them the Series.  BTW,
that was the same ump who had the incredible shrinking strike zone the next
game.  Those umpires really should be picked by merit, not seniority!
Of course, being from St. Louis, I'm totally unbiased.
