Home of the One and Only Rally Squirrel

It’s the same squirrel that attacked Brendan Harris at Target Field, it just followed LNP to St Louis.

But St. Louis radio is currently talking about Punto

Apparently he is one of only two Cardinals (Berkman being the other) to have faced Wilson before.

Texas radio: "Interleague play has not been kind to the Cardinals and the Rangers."

No, in fact, interleague play sucks. It is a good thing that the Cardinals and Rangers haven’t faced each other since 2004. It makes the World Series more interesting.

You know what is nice

Not seeing “OMG BEAST MODE” after every single base hit.

yeah, that was annoying after a while.

It was cute at first, and I could understand maybe if it was for a home run they all did that, but every single? stupid.

Drew Butera was on their team and he got a single?

Shit, the Twins should have a Cal Ripken like ceremony for those

Just stop the game and have him run around the field.

why? it's really fun to do just for fun...

I have a nasty pick off move though… yay picking off my friends when we’re playing baseball for fun before the game comes on because I’m competitive and take it seriously…!!! lol

It doesn't work

like ever. It’s taught when you’re 13, and by 14 it no longer works. Maybe once per year.

yeah, true.. I've never seen it work.

I muted the TV and have been working on a CD mix for a friend so I didn't catch it.

But that’s hilarious
