Geez-us. Stop nibbling Westbrook. Votto can't hit a grand slam with only one guy on base.

OK, I lose the deep part of the outfield from my window.  Did one of our outfielders make a really tough catch or do the Reds respect Jay's arm so little that Votto just took 2nd on a deep fly ball?

Did Jay's home run bounce off Choo's glove?

Phillips hit to the warning track.

But an otherwise routine fly ball?  Busch Stadium isn't so deep to center that Joey Votto should be able to go 1st to 2nd on a fly ball unless the outfielder has to leave his feet to make the catch.

Yes, very routine. He had no chance of getting him, either.

Apparently the Busch Stadium employees haven't had time to reload the fireworks canisters.  I only got sirens with that one.

No.  The video is there on MLB.com.  It hit the concrete behind Choo's glove.

I've got a 2" x 1" video window, and when I tried to enlarge it, the website crashed on me.

I wish I was home watching this. I love to see TTTIB get humiliated.

Great job by Westbrook and Cardinals starters in general. 

Two much-needed days off for the bullpen, too. Now let's throttle Milwaukee.

This worked pretty well after last series, let's try again.

Fuck Cincinnati.  Fuck Dusty Baker and his toothpick.  Fuck that whiny little bitch Brandon Phillips and that coward Johnny Cueto.  Fuck Johnny Gomes even though he isn't with them.  Fuck Bronson Arroyo for being a part of the 2004 Red Sox and for the stupid corn rows he used to wear.  Fuck your 2012 Central Division title.  Last but certainly not least, fuck Marty Brennaman and whoever he banged to create that mentally retarded cumstain he calls a kid.  Now take your snivelling asses back to Ohio with a 10-0 beatdown to remember.

Ahhhhh.  That felt good.

 
*Sniff* That's poetry.
I'd add: Fuck that chain-smoking neo-Nazi racist hellwench who let her mangy St. Bernard take a dump on the field, but who would really want to? Even when she was alive.

I think tonight's rainout in Chicago means the Cardinals face Lohse on Friday.

I am less than thrilled
