Looked to me like Pujols had a bit extra giddyup in his home run trot. I think he's having fun.
The other thing was Rasmus talking to Albert in the dugout. Haven't seen that much before.
I'm sure Colby's old man has his best interests at heart, but #5 is the guy from whom he should be taking advice.

I wonder how they stack up. I have a hunch that the 2003 was a whole lot worse. Besdies Izzy, of the guys with an appreciable number of appearances they had two relievers with an ERA just under 4, King and Eldred. After that things got really rocky. Not to mention their record in close games.
Listening the the Reds announcers discuss the Reds' woes in close games reminded me of the 2003 Cards.

Well, the Cardinals have lost five games this year after leading with two outs in the ninth inning. That's just unspeakably bad.

I'd like to take your word for it, but it would be interesting if we could see a distribution graph of walk-off losses by team. Are these stats tabulated anywhere? e.g. Team stats, 'walk-off losses'.
