A Lazy, But Not Inaccurate, Preview of Pittsburgh-St. Louis

The very talented Adam Wainwright faces the also very talented Gerrit Cole in Pittsburgh tonight at 8pm ET in a deciding Game Five of the NLDS series between the Cardinals and Pirates.

Almost no effort, and even less thought, has been required of the author whilst producing this so-called preview of said contest. And yet, by including the two animated GIFs below — of Wainwright and Cole asserting themselves upon the opposition assertively — that same dumb author has anticipated basically, like, 65% or 70% of tonight’s game already.

Like by means of this one GIF, for example, of Adam Wainwright throwing his curveball for a strikeout:

Wainwright CU

And also by means of this other GIF, too, which depicts Gerrit Cole’s slider, striking out a batter:

Cole SL
