I won't comment too much about the game we saw in St. Louis because, well, it wasn't all that interesting. Two rain delays, and 10 runs scored by the Brewers in the first 5 innings took about 4 hours, so we struggled to make it until the seventh inning stretch. Despite the lackluster game as well as the lackluster season the Cardinals are having, Busch Stadium proved to be great field in a great baseball city. The crowd was into the game for the first few innings at least as they stayed through the rain delays and successfully started the wave. We got to see the skyline in the background, which was very visible from out standing room tickets, which quickly changed into Upper Deck seats on the first baseline.
After a brief stop at Denny's for a grand slam breakfast, our plan now is to drive the 225 miles to Kansas City to catch a night game at Kauffman Stadium, where we supposedly have some great seats waiting for us. And if anything is to go wrong with that, we can always just go home and watch Barry Bonds' pursuit of Hank Aaron's home run record on ESPN.
