The stadium looks pretty sad during the games. Reports around here is a mixed bag of reasons....the economy...the teams lack of wins...the incident with the beating of the Giants fan...but MOSTLY...fans are just sick of the owner and his bs....that would be my #1 complaint!

We're heading down to Busch Stadium. It's going to be another hot day.

I don't mind, the heat seems to have woken up a certain number 5.

Let's sweep the Cubs and get a win for Carpenter.

Please.

We got the sweep with another walk-off homer for Albert.

A fun time at the ballpark.

:woohoo: OH MY! :woohoo:

back to back wins :woohoo:

No win for Carp, but still a win! What a game!!!!! They said it was really, really hot, and Busch gets warmer than the average ball park to begin with, imo. How did you handle it?

Can you believe they pitched to Albert? The first day they had a bit of an excuse because Lance was coming up behind him. But yesterday?! There was no excuse!!!!!!! So silly!

I'm loving reading the articles about Zambrano blowing his lid (yet again). Gotta loves those Cubs, haha.

Go Cards!

Hi Amber.

Carp pitched a great game.

I don't know why they pitched to him. Everyone in the stadium was waiting for him to hit it out of the ballpark and he did. Fantastic atmosphere.

Sunday's game wasn't as hot as Saturday. They have cooling stations and free water.

Ditto here. I can go to work today only because a powerful administrator is a HUGE hockey fan and he'll be in a good mood since the Bruins tied the Stanly cup last night.

Thanks to Sweetcaroline for staying up late enough to get The Red Sox a 7 run 7th inning. (I just presume you did, since you're a true fan - as differs from those of us who went to bed before the first inning after that 3 hour rain delay.)

We're up in Milwaukee for 3 games.

Need to do well. The Brewers are playing good right now.

Tony LaRussa is managing his 5,000th game tonight. Wow. That's a lot of games.

Everytime we get a little life in us, we seem to get the air sucked out and go flat...

As our back-up left outfielder's dad once said.....

We need our injured players off the DL.

Carp not looking very good.

Nice catch by Tony Gwynn Jr. last night to get the save over Diane's Rockies!

Ha Ha, nope, have to be honest Bill, I never turned it on, but what a great series.
We are on a roll second best in the MLB. :cp:

This team is falling apart.

Lost 5 in a row.
