“The Cardiac Cardinals Stamp their MLB Playoff pass”
There is never a bad time to go on a 17-0 run, but the St. Louis Cardinals made this one truly count. A longshot to make the playoffs on September 11, sitting at 71-69, in the weeks that followed they have registered the best winning streak in MLB since 2017.
If any Cardinal can boast the heart of a lion, this team certainly has. The timely effort pushed them into the NL wild-card game on October 6 vs. either the Los Angeles Dodgers or San Francisco Giants.
With only a handful of games left to go, who knows how much longer this streak can last? Certainly that kind of momentum has put certain fear into whatever team they face in the postseason.
