The Well Runs Dry

After scoring 16 runs in Game 3 of the World Series, the Cardinals were shutout in Game 4 and held to just 2 runs in Game 5, losing both games.
Great pitching by Derek Holland in Game 4 and good enough pitching in Game 5 by C.J. Wilson have the Rangers one win away from their first World Series title.
The Cardinals have to be upset scoring just 2 runs in the last two games in Texas' ballpark. That place is a hitter's paradise but last night the Cards left 71 guys on base...or so it seemed.
With the bats quiet and the Rangers pitching of late, I think their chances of wrapping up the series in 6 games is good with Colby Lewis on the hill against Jaime Garcia tomorrow night.
