Albert Pujols on David Letterman (Video)
In case you missed it last night, Albert Pujols stopped by the Late Show with David Letterman last night. The Cardinals are in New York to start their series against the Mets tonight so Letterman had him on because, let’s face it, he is the best player in baseball right now. Albert talked about teams […]
Avoiding the Broom, Other Baseball Thoughts, T.O.
Whew. One week after sweeping the Dodgers and nearly sweeping Philadelphia, the Cardinals nearly found themselves victim of the same trend, pulling out a late-night victory against the Cubs. This spared the Cardinals of the ignominy of losing to the cubs, and me losing a bet, forcing me to streak around my friend’s apartment complex […]
“One hit? One g*damn hit?”
I think it’s safe to say that for the finale of the series with the Phillies, the Cardinals went out with a whimper. The Cardinals managed one hit and two walks in 11 innings yesterday while losing 2-0 to the Phillies. Tip your cap to Cole Hamels; he simply was on. Adam Wainwright was effective […]
Dusting off the Brooms
Finally! Much like a girl who teases and frustrates a man to the point of no return, the 2010 Cardinals have flirted with sweeps throughout the season, only to come up empty. Not this time, though. Playing the first series after the All-Star Break, the Cardinals finally managed a sweep, a four-game series, no less. […]
Halfway Home: The St. Louis Cardinals at the All-Star Break
With the All-Star game tonight marking the slightly-over-halfway point of the season, it’s a good time to look over how the Cardinals have done thus far. At 47-41, it’s safe to say thus far the results have been a little underwhelming. Like me with my women, the Cardinals started off strong before they faltered and […]
StL Sports Update
Oh, hello there. This is going to be a rather large collective update for all the goings on in the world of sports related to St. Louis. El Birdos Somehow, the Cardinals managed to lose two out of three to the Royals. The Royals. Currently the Cardinals sit a half game out of first place. […]
Holliday? Holy…Cow.
Hello there, and a happy belated Father’s Day to all of you who are fathers. As for me, I don’t fit that category…as far as I know. /crossing fingers The Cardinals wrapped up a mostly successful week of interleague play taking four of six from Seattle and Oakland. Once again, starting pitching was a strong […]
Friday Thoughts
The Cardinals had an off-day yesterday after getting broomed out of town by the Dodgers, giving them a little time to lick their wounds before heading to Arizona. There were a few St. Louis-related sports bits, however. – It’s being reported that Jeff Suppan, released last week by the Milwaukee Brewers, is very close to […]
Cardinals Thoughts, Big 12 Begone
Welp, aside from Ryan Ludwick and Chris Carpenter, I think it’s safe to say none of the Cardinals showed up to play in LA this week. Studwick went 4 for 12 with three bombs and five RBI. Carpenter pitched a terrific game on Tuesday but got a no-decision as the Cardinals ultimately lost 1-0. The […]
Sprint Needs More Coverage
I’ll admit, I didn’t get to follow the Cardinals this weekend. Instead, I spent the weekend in glorious Grafton, Illinois, camping at Pere Marquette with my friends Mike, Chris, Jessica, and her family. An epic time was had. Overeating, overdrinking, drunk swimming, trading drinking stories with her uncles. I did decide to collect mosquito bites, […]
