And now Harper walks.
Phils have the bases loaded and nobody out in the top of the 8th.
Woe and despair…….
Get Beat singles in the first run of the game.
1-0 Redbirds in the last of the 7th.
Note:
Get Beat = WinnAll clear in the St. Louis area.
But here in SW Indiana we are getting a downpour. A Noah type deluge at this point. It’s not rained much for the last couple of weeks so this is a good thing. It started about ten minutes before I was going to water the landscaping. Got out of that..:)
Not real thrilled about this pitching matchup but one never knows.
And the Doppler Radar shows all clear throughout the greater metropolitan St. Louis area at least for the moment.
Weather wise all looks clear in the greater metropolitan St. Louis area around the time of first pitch.
However, there appears to be a small band of showers a little north of downtown St. Louis that could possibly impact the game later in the evening.
Looks like Schwarber might be getting hot again.
He jacked a couple of dongs on Sunday.
Don’t be needing that now.
And din-din today will be a couple of baked potatoes, some Allen’s Italian Green Beans, an ice cold slushy Mt. Dew, and a bowl of Turkey Hill Vanilla Bean ice cream.

Taking a gander at the meteorological conditions for the St. Louis area today.
All appears clear throughout the midwest. There is a band of storms/rain about to hit the northwest side of Missouri in the next hour or so. Hard to tell if it might find it’s way down to the St. Louis area later today.
Din-din today is a Hungry Man’s Fried Chicken TV dinner. Along with a piece of Apple Pie and a bowl of Turkey Hill Vanilla Bean ice cream.
1td,
The only team that comes to mind that’s been similarly hot were the Tigers in 1984. Didn’t they start the season 35-5 or something like that?r/Esteemed Rat
Cards667,
Excellent! Glad I’m not the only one that had catfish fiddlers today. After all, it is a CCFF.For the uninformed that’s Cardinals Catfish Fiddlers Friday.
I wonder if Pugs also had some fiddlers today? I bet he had his cinammon pies though.
And bling, that’s still pretty close. Just do your best.
Oh, and the Cubs lead the Royals 4-1 at Kaufmann Stadium.
Plus Boston might win one today. They are up 11-1.
Minnesota jumped in front of the Brewers at County Stadium. 6-4 in the last of the 5th. But the Brewers have the bases loaded and nobody out.
Ugh….
Hate to say this but Bregman hit a two out two run homer in the 9th to tie the game 2-2 against Toronto. And then the Cubs won it 3-2 in 11 innings.
Not sure but from watching the highlights on MLB it looked like that the Yanker CF Grisham might have misplayed a couple of balls over his head that helped our cause.
And Weatherman doubles in two runs in the 5th.
2-0 Redbirds at this point.
If they lose I believe they fall into a tie for last place with the Reds.
There is a small cell of storms and rains in and around the greater metro New York area. I don’t think this delay is going to last very long.
2-0 Yankers in the last of the 7th.
13 runs last night.
Nothing tonight.
Nothing.
And yes, I know Walker and Burleson are out of the lineup tonight.
Yankers now have a 7-6 lead in the last of the 7th.
Boy, I can’t wait for all of those pitching prospects to turn into super-star relievers so our bullpen won’t blow any more games.
It’s a 6-5 game now in the last of the 7th.
This one is about to go into the Lost column after a 6-0 lead.
In other words folks……what we got for May/Romero and Nootbaar was pretty much nothing.
More prospects – PROSPECTS – that will more than likely never really amount to anything. Most prospects don’t. Sometimes they turn out to be fair players but that’s about it. If they were projected to be outstanding big leaguers they would never have been traded in the first place.
Like I keep saying…….free agency is our only hope to be in contention in 27 or 28. And in the meantime we will wait for these prospects to develop. Good luck with that.
