The Mets Show Some Midnight Funk

Last night's Cardinals loss to the Mets — we watched that one with our parents at a Brooklyn bar, though we're heading to Flushing tonight and tomorrow — seemed inevitable from the get-go. Frankly, we have a sneaking suspicion the Cardinals are going to be swept in these four games, saving us the trouble of believing they have any sort of hope this year. This would bother us a lot more if the Cardinals hadn't won the World Series last year, but they did.
