@williamfleitch: I am not sure I remember a game as purely enjoyable as this Dodgers-Cardinals game. Buzz would have wriiten a gorgeous book about this one.

Thoughts on Bonnie Erbe vs. Erin Andrews →
I know there are quite a few ladies that read this tumblr, so I thought I would point this out.  It’s all our fault girls.  If it hadn’t been for our love of sports, Erin Andrews would never have had a peeping tom. Please continue baking that apple pie you were working on earlier.

“I like this team. I don’t see a lot of weaknesses here. Love the Holliday trade....”
– Major League Jerk I obviously don’t think there would be anything boring about a World Series win, but I like this guy’s reasoning.  No really, I often make most of my decisions using no rationale whatsoever.  People often ask me why I don’t like one team or another and my new...

“I don’t want to dissect it. Things are going where they need to go. I’m getting...”
– Rick Ankiel on his work in the batting cage. (via Derrick Goold’s 10@10) Not mentioned is the fact that his regrown mustache is about the same age of his fixed stance.  Coincidence?  Don’t think so.

I'm Back!
No better way to celebrate the end of my vacation than a game against the Dodgers that I get to watch on TV. … and Ankiel getting hits! Let’s go Cardinals!

Joel Pineiro's ERA, after facing the Phillies, is...
brighteryellow: Julio Lugo, leading off for the Cardinals today, has played well defensively, hit a home run and a triple. Matt Holliday is playing in left field and has four hits. Chris Duncan is in AAA. In Boston. Joe Thurston is not in the lineup. Rick Ankiel is driving the ball. Hello, Twilight Zone. I’m the kind of person that is very uncomfortable with change.  If it was up to...

Agreed.
@williamfleitch: If Cards miss playoffs and DeRosa and Holliday are both gone next year, I am going to be very upset. For now, though: FLOOR IT!

brighteryellow: Is it working? According to FoxSportsMW he is, but I haven’t found pictures, yet.  Although you might be able to see a slight shadow on the right in this photo.

Chris Berman Handy HR Derby Viewing Guide →
This must-have map includes every possible town Berman may use to complete the statement “All the way to ___________” (in his very non-annoying way) following each home run hit in tonight’s derby. Can also be used as a drinking game.  Or you can do what I do and jab a thumbtack into your temple each time he says it. (guest post!)

Apologies & Thank You
I’ve been busy (working vacation) and haven’t been able to update with many original posts.  However, a big thank you to brighteryellow for being a great Cardinals fan and not yelling at me for becoming a feed of reblogs. Everyone enjoy the Home Run Derby.
