The St. Louis Cardinals are back holding a wild card spot thanks to a great outing by Adam Wainwright and late inning heroics. This win allowed, combined with a Mets loss to the Braves, allowed the Cardinals to take sole possession of the second wild card spot.
While we St. Louis Cardinals fans should celebrate this win and the retaking of the wild card spot, we need to stay aware that this season will likely be a fight to the end. To this point, three powerful teams are vying for two wild card spots, as we all know.
