Shildt did allow, though, that the club must find a way, any way, to manufacture runs—the Cardinals have had one in two games--for Monday night’s Game 3 of the National League Championship Series they trail two games to none. He did, however, stress loyalty, as, in essence, the Cardinals would dance with who ‘brung ‘em.”
“We’ve been very blessed with the fact that we've had the nucleus of our team together this year, and in most fashion, the guys that we've had in the lineup for the last several months have been in the lineup the last several days and have been able to do exactly that (create runs),” said Shildt.
