Monday night in San Francisco the Cardinals hopes of a repeat of 2011 were ended at the hands of the Giants. Just like in 1996, the Cardinals, with a new manager, had a 3-1 lead in the National League Championship series. And, just like in '96, the Cards failed to get win No. 4, losing in Game 7 in a blowout. The Cardinals were done in by a series of miscues and the inability to get a big basehit.

Associate local editor Joe Scott is a lifelong St. Louis Cardinals fan whose first memory in school involves listening to the Cards play in the 1968 World Series. Fortunately, the nuns at St. Gregory were also Cardinals fans. (Read down for the Brewers' counterpoint and vote in our poll. Visit our live blog at 2 p.m. Sunday.) Yes, the Brewers won more games over the course of the season, finished ahead of the Cardinals in the Central Division and won the season series over the Cards.
