Ollie got it done.
What I always liked about Ollie is this: he's a competitor who sucks at competition but still instists on competing. You can see him on the mound, playing mental games with himself, trying to stay tough - and more often than not he he fails. He psychs himself out. He's got all the athletic tools. Mentally, he just isn't quite there.
But when he stays tough, like he did last night...damn he's good. And you can see it on his face, he's overcoming something that's difficult for him. Makes him fun to watch.
It's too bad we don't get to see him in the World Series. Man, if they went on to win that thing - Ollie would have been a hero. Chavez's catch would have been the catch.
Friggin' Cards...
