The Cardinals’ team charter plane had a 7-hour delay on the tarmac yesterday while mechanical problems were being addressed. The delay spawned a Twitter hashtag, #cardsplaneproblems. These are a few of the best of those tweets:

The Cards plane velocity has been down the last few flights and has been shut down. Will see Dr. Andrews in the morning #cardsplaneproblems

Randy Choate is perfectly suited to fix the plane, but Matheny’s going to let Lance Lynn keep trying a little longer. #cardsplaneproblems

When @carlosbeltran15 said he wanted to make this Series last forever, he meant it. #cardsplaneproblems

Shelby Miller has been instructed to warm up another plane. Ah, check that. He sat back down. #cardsplaneproblems
