We will see you tomorrow night!!!

That's the phrase I heard from the late great Jack Buck October 26, 1991, after Kirby Puckett hit a walk off homer in the 11th inning of game 6 off old man Charlie Liebrandt in the 1991 world series. It was a moment that gave me chills and at the time, I didn't know what that was about. I was 13 years old and learning about baseball, learning about clutch performances and all the ups and downs that come with big wins and even bigger defeat.

20 years and one day later, Joe Buck, son of the great Jack Buck, uttered those words when David Freese went walk off last night to give his team the victory they so desperately needed. I don't know who is going to be the hero tonight, I don't know how the game will play out, and of course we do not know which team will celebrate or which team will be crushed in defeat. I do know that we got what we all wish for. Game 7.

We can discuss and debate much of game 6, which will go down as one of the greatest games in the history of baseball. It was ugly at times with countless mental as well as physical mistakes and that game was beautiful as well. It was one of the most incredible games you will ever see in baseball and let's just hope game 7 gives us more of the same. I stand behind my recent post and believe that St. Louis will be hosting a victory parade tomorrow afternoon and I feel confident that La Russa will do what he did in 2006. Win a world series, with a team that many said had no chance to make the playoffs, couldn't beat Philly in the first round, wouldn't be able to shut down The Brew Crew in the LCS and definitely wouldn't be able to handle a very hot Texas team. If we have learned anything at all from sports, what we think is going to happen doesn't always happen. When we think a team is dead and they have absolutely no chance to win, like last night when Texas was one strike away from the first world series win in franchise history, St. Louis fought back to win a game they needed to win. If you love baseball the way I do, you are excited for the final game of the 2011 mlb season.
