That’s a lot of empty seats. Weren’t there a few years in a row where the Cardinals had sellout crowds for every game all season long?

When they had the Cardinals broadcasters and Todd Jones on together, I’d have to say that I would definitely prefer having Alexa Datt on our broadcast team instead of Todd. She brings a vitality to the game that Todd lacks.

They are kind of fusing the two different teams pregame shows together from what I can tell. Interesting. They are both a part of the FanDuel “legitimate businessmen“ family. Given how good the Cardinals have been playing lately and that we’ll have two “pitching chaos“ games this series, I’m starting to fear for our welfare.

Oh, that is so sweet. It warms the cockles of my cinder of a heart. Now I understand better the malevolence.

From my Facebook feed today. I am shocked that the weekend celebration of our Armed Forces could be so easily reduced to a transparent cash grab to sell more caps. I hope that FanDuel provides some betting odds today on how profitable this will be this week.

He seems nice…

I’m thinking the same thing. Three games against a tough team that’s been on a roll where they are thoroughly dominant at home. I’m going to check my tendency to fret and whine at the door when I enter these game threads for the next three games. I also carry virulent resentments concerning 2006 and that whiny ass bastard Tim McCarver. I am not a placid, objective observer of games with this team.

When I tried to open this post, I was immediately sent to a pop-up ad for lawyers in West Texas. What kind of hell does my phone in league with Internet advertising think I inhabit?

Ohtani at the plate… got him on strikes! Angels win and sweep the Dodgers for the first time in 15 years! Just amazing that the Padres were swept in three games at home by the Mariners and the Angels sweep the Dodgers in Dodger stadium. American LEAGUE… American LEAGUE!!

The Angels are on the verge of sweeping the Dodgers in Dodger Stadium for their three game series, and the Mariners likewise, if they hold on, will sweep the Padres in San Diego. This is a big weekend course correction for the NL West, which has been pretty dominant so far this year.

This. For me, the ads are a distraction. I don’t enjoy that, but I get it. But the time that too many podcasts take warming up and being personal really annoys me. It’s almost as if they’re 1950s Science Fiction short story writers and they’re getting paid by the word. Just get to the point.

Right now, the pitcher for tomorrow is TBD. Skubal and Jack, however, are listed for Tuesday and Wednesday games. The pitcher before Skubal last time was pitching chaos with Holton starting and Montero coming in.

St. Louis is 15–6 at home. Going 2-1 there would be really significant.

It’s close enough to Kansas to be the Wizard of Oz.

It slipped my mind that torque had driven in all the runs.

Good teams win close games they can’t all be blowouts.

At this rate, Jobe could have a 14–0 season.

The guardians are losing, and the twins are losing

All their base are belong to us

No, no no no not that. No no no not an error.

I never asked her for a spelling. Apparently there were too damn many with anything close to that name coming to America.

Phew. That was tense.
