RIP Roy Halladay

I feel badly for family and friends, including his pal and our own Chris Carpenter.

I'll never forget Gm 5 of the 2011 NLDS that further propelled our Redbirds to their 11th WS title.

Carp v Halladay

No doubt one of my fav playoff games ever. Seemed like it took about 45 mins to play. Carp just getting it done on fumes late in his career. And Doc just being Doc. IIRC, Furcal bounced one around in the corner for a leadoff triple, Skippy gets a hit to score him, and those were literally the only two hard hit balls all game long...Doc was always one of my favs. No secret why he and Carp were such good buddies. No BS, hard-working dudes.
