    45,000 in attendance. Bottom of the 8th. This is getting serious.

    will they leave VerHagen in to take one for the team?

    The Cards have not even gotten their uniforms dirty.

    Verhagen and Helsley, over the side with them. We all love Waino but 5 innings doesn’t work. Sorry.

    That was a disgrace. Embarrassed to see the birds on the bat on those guys.

    That was one of the most uninspiring performances I have seen.

    For those of you who didn’t follow the game, smart move. You probably increased your life expectancy.

    Cards won a couple days ago with just 2 hits. Maybe they think that’s the formula?

    Won’t work in 9, Euro. Takes 10 innings to win on 2 hits.

    Lucky I missed it. NCAA tournament starts this weekend. Most of those guys will play like their pants are on fire.

    If I were a Royal’s fan I’d have some serious concerns. How do you only score 7 runs after banging out 16 hits?

    1td, if you’re gonna win with 2 hits, I think the spacing and the timing of the hits is also crucial.

    Thanks for the heads up, Euro. Those are good. I’ll be tuning in.

    Yep 1td, over the years, the NCAA tournament has grown on me. I never watched it when I was young.

    The radio post game show reports that today was supposed to be an off day, then the two game series, then a day off.

    They also noted that Cardinal brass lobbied for a Memorial Day home game, and mlb obliged.

    With Bill, its all about selling tickets, so he turned 17 in a row into 19, to cash in on the holliday ticket sales.

    I just noticed it was our former guy, Mike Mayers, who slammed the door in our face. Makes sense. Didn’t realize he was still active. Has to be his best outing ever at Busch.

    I haven’t taken a look in several years now, Euro, but got hooked for a while back in the early 2000’s when what was then the Southwest Missouri State, Bears reached the College WS semifinal. They later changed the name of the school to Missouri State, but I knew 2 kids real well who were on the ’03 team that reached the College WS finals. They got beat by Rice who went on beat Stanford in the final series. Both those kids did real well throughout the tournament. I was real proud of them.

    One of these years, I’d like to go to Omaha to take in part of the CWS.

    Speaking of the Memorial Day home game, I was surprised to see a light slate around the Big Leagues. Seems like everyone always played on Memorial Day. Maybe I just don’t rightly recall.

    I really wanted to go in ’03, Euro, but I was still situated in the salt mines. About 25 or 30 of us met up and watched several games on ESPN. It was fun.

    My daughter and a friend stopped over and I BBQ,d and we did family chit-chatting in the back yard all afternoon. Thank goodness for that as it caused me to miss what looks to be an embarrassment. We are back to losing opening series’ games again, and it looks like this one was about as humiliating as you can get.
