Is it ironic that the St Louis Cardinals lost their last game (game 7) of the 2012 National Leauge Championship Series 0-9 but won the their last game (game 6) of the 2013 National Leauge Championship Series 9-0. In other words is it ironic they lost 0-9 last year and won 9-0 this year of just a coincidence?
