Yep Pugs, a love/hate relationship with KMOX. As a child I was amazed I couldn’t get some FM stations 30 miles away, but could pick Cards games on KMOX. But oh, that fading in and out was maddening. How many times did you hear Buck say the bases loaded 3-2 pitch was on its way and then it would fade out…only to hear a couple minutes later the Cardinals one-run deficit had turned into a lead. I try to remember the good ones and forget the bad ones!
Cards just took a 1-0 lead on a Pham double.
Ozuna reached and went to 2nd on a throwing error by Kingery, advancing JMart to 3rd. Gyorko’s double plates two more. 4-0
Brings back very fond memories, Euro! 4-0 Cards now. But that darn rain troubles me. Sure would hate to see this one washed away with the nice lead. Even Dexter reaches base in this productive inning…via walk. If I’m Philadelphia, I yank the pitcher immediately after Fowler reaches base. Matter of fact, I shouldn’t say this too loud, but that just may serve all opposing teams well. What a great barometer to indicate that your pitcher has had it. It shouldn’t matter who the pitcher is or what part of the game it’s in. If Fowler gets on base….you immediately yank your pitcher.
Pugs,
Speaking of homeruns, Dan and Tim interviewed the guy that hit the first homerun I ever saw at a big league game back on Saturday night, August 2, 1969. Dodgers in St. Louis.Any idea who that was?

Gotta love how some umps get a little extra animated on their calls on the real nice defensive plays. That 1st base ump really gave his out call some extra pizzazz on the nice play by Wong to end the Phillie 4th.
Let me look into my crystal ball….I see Logan with a big 40th birthday coming soon. I predict January 23rd. Francisco Pena with a ringing double! This fellow can hit! Yadi who???
Wow! Next to Maxvill, Julian would have been my last guess, Rat. I bet a dog and coke could be had for under $2 back then.
Pena has a little pop. Had a foul ball that had home run distance in San Diego. He seems to playing his best ball at the right moment.
You out there Cardinals2016? 5-0 in the 4th and looking for more. We may have to evoke the Mercy Rule before this one is over.
Surprise surprise! Marcell (0-2) wearing the collar yet once again. We could be leading 18-0 And he’d still be hitless. I’m going to start referring to my white German Shepherd’s collar as a “Marcell”…..now he does coax a walk in this at bat though.
Speaking of dogs, we are thinking of getting another white German Shepherd soon. I’ve had this same type of dog for the past 25 years….all with regal names such as Duke, Baron and Prince. I’m thinking of going with Jorge ( pronounced “Hor-Hay”) for my next one. Any suggestions?
Pena plants one wayyy up into the pillars in left!! Just a triple shy of the cycle. He’s on a torrid streak!
Wacha with another nice outing thus far….6-2 Birds veering towards the bottom of the 6th. If we get Carlos and Reyes dealing soon, along with Miles, Wacha and Weaver. And if Marcell and Dexter can start getting cozy with the Mendoza Line, the sky is the limit for this team!
