Without a doubt game number 6 last night was one of the most exciting games, but not as exciting as the Pittsburgh Pirate's game number 7 when Maz hits the walk off home run to beat the Yankees .

Of the last 13 Major League teams that won a Game 6 playoff game at home to force a Game 7, 12 went on to win Game 7. The one exception is the 2006 Mets, who lost to the Cardinals in the NLCS

How Mr Beltan could take a third strike three to end that series still gives me nightmares.

However, one of the best games I ever saw in person was earlier in 2006.

Mr Pulhoz hits a grand slam and a three run homer.

Cards have 7 run lead.

Mr Delgado hit his 400th home run a solo shot. Later in the game he hits a grand slam. Mets down by 1, Bottom of the 9th, first man gets on and Mr Beltran hits a shot to win game. Shea almost fell down.

Best ball game I ever saw in person and it just tops the 1964 allstar game I witnessed, only allstar game Mets ever hosted. Hello MLB!

Another series with great pitching. I think that was the 1st series I ever watched. Fun to see Yogi just look up. I was a Brooklyn Dodger fan and my team left and Metsies weren't born yet.

For tonight, we'll let you all be St. Louis fans.

When Nelson Cruz misjudged where the outfield fence was, he opened the door for the Cards to come back. He was further away from the fence than he thought he was and that fly ball was one he should have caught to end the game.
