Sports Thread #2 For 10/8/09: 2009 MLB Postseason- Classic 9th Inning Magic Rally Overcomes Brilliant Wainwright For Massive 2-0 Edge

By -
Matt Holiday has got to be the sickest man in all of America right now......outside of those without health care of course.

Another come from behind win for the Dodgers as Mark Laretta signs off of Ryan Franklin for the dramatic win for the Dodgers. Unquestioned heartbreak for the Cardinals, who got just a virtuoso performance from Adam Wainwright, who showed his credentials as probably the CY Young winner in the Nationals League this year.

But Clayton Kershaw was almost as brilliant, and his performance should not be forgotten. He was right there with Wainwright all game long, even after giving up the early home run to Holiday.

But Holiday turns from hero to goat at the very end, and this one is a heartbreaker like no other for Tony LaRussa's side. Wainwright gave them a start that should have given them a massive Game 2 win.

Instead, they will have to somehow recover from getting sweep on Saturday. The highs and lows of postseason baseball like no other.

The box score that no St. Louis fan would want to see.
