Dexter, Missouri - With an incredible bottom of the 13th inning win by the St. Louis Cardinals, local Dexter fans continue their excitement in the playoff fever and are prepared for the afternoon 3:07 opening pitch.  Many Cardinal faithful lost their battle with their heavy eyelids, but the Redbirds didn't let them down defeating the Los Angeles Dodgers by a score of 3 to 2.

Local Cardinal fans, Greg and Lisa Mathis, have been busy helping to raise the excitement locally for St. Louis.  Greg was able to acquire street banners from the past championships for the Cardinals and worked with the City of Dexter to show the community's spirit for the playoffs.

Shown above, Greg Mathis and Doug Cox display one of the two banners that are displayed on the light poles in front of the Rainey-Mathis Funeral Home on Stoddard Street in Downtown Dexter. 

When was the last time that a playoff team won two games in one day?  Stay tuned and we can all hope that today holds another win for the St. Louis Cardinals.
