NO END TO THE NINTH FOR THE CARDINALS

Talk about a disaster of an inning. The Colorado Rockies were down by 6 runs in the 9th inning, at home, against the St. Louis Cardinals. Game over right? WRONG! Believe it or not, the Cardinals blew this game by allowing 9, that's NINE, runs at the end of the inning to end the game. Let me tell you, the Rockies are hardly an offensive threat. The Rockies and Cards have identical records in their division and are both within striking distance to first. It's going to be a long summer and if the Cardinals don't shore up their pitching, they can kiss the division goodbye, especially the way Cincinnati is playing.

BOSTON CHOKES AGAIN

It doesn't get better than this. OK, maybe the Boston Celtics losing to the Los Angeles Lakers was better but this is pretty close. The Boston Red Sox head into the bottom of the ninth inning against the Colorado Rockies with a 1 run lead. Enter their arrogant, dramatic closer Jonathan Papelbon to seal the deal, known for rubbing it in to opposing batters. Game over, right? WRONG! The Colorado Rockies tagged Pap (as they like to call him) for 3 earned runs, 3 hits, and 2 home runs in just a third of an inning. Oh yeah, the loss and his second blown save of the season too. I'm not just hating on the guy, but this kid has been one of the cockiest S.O.B.s out there. Karma is a bitch and I'm glad the Rockies busted him up. Don't worry Paps, a 3.64 era for a closer ain't that bad...
