“Worst. Mayor. Ever” … “Laughingstock.” … “Big Bird.” … “Why is he even here?” … “He wanted to take the statue down.” … “He should be ashamed.” Just a sampling of what Mayor de Blasio heard from indigenous people at the Columbus Day Parade.

Breaking! The broken Cardinals will have to win two of three in DC to take the NLCS back to St. Louis. Game 4 starter Dakota Hudson was as reliable as any pitcher in the rotation late in the season. Posted an ERA of 1.86 over his past nine starts. Made postseason debut against the Braves and threw 4 ²/₃ innings, allowing one run. Cards’ bats, dormant in Games 1 and 2, will either wake up or be put away for the winter. Nationals’ Patrick Corbin took a tough loss in Game 1 of the NLDS. Dodgers scored two runs, only one earned, over six frames. Came out of the bullpen twice to toss a spotless 1 ¹/₃ innings of relief as well. Play 10 units on the desperate Cardinals.

Latest edition of Deadwood saw the Cards score once, doubling their total for the series. Nationals won 8-1. Stephen Strasburg went seven for the W. Back on the Cards tomorrow, but for tonight we’re winners. Down -418 pizzaiolas.
