Wry. Random. I like baseball, music, and beer. #StLCards. Appreciate Bill DeWitt Jr but tired of DeWishing Well strategy. #Illini

According to Tim McCarver, Mike Shannon took a crossbow on the Cardinals’ trip to Japan in 1968. To go bear hunting. #StLCards #Awesome

@StephLuvsSports And one section away from you, in 267.

@StephLuvsSports Dang @StephLuvsSports. I was at the game, too. And enjoyed watching deGrom pitch, and secure a milestone win, even though the Birds lost. His fastball seemed lively from my cheap seat in the loge.

@cardscookie The 300’s behind home plate?

[Kurt @KurtfuffleInStL]

@cardscookie I paid good money to see them twice many years ago (once in Busch II), and now the sound of Kevin Cronin’s voice is like a dagger in my ears.

[Kurt @KurtfuffleInStL]

Much more intrigued by this guy’s first name than shirtless bros, not going to lie.

@StephLuvsSports I apparently just missed you-we were at the Fri afternoon session.

@cardscookie Any list of Christmas songs that doesn’t include ‘Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer’ is a fine list.

@AugieNash My aunt was a flight attendant for Ozark. We donated quite a bit of her memorabilia to the TWA museum in KC.
Saved a deck of Ozark playing cards.

The end of the @Phillies and @Dodgers game yesterday was hard to watch obviously because of how it ended. I woke up this morning still devastated for Orion Kerkering. But I’ll tell you what I did see: In a moment of total disbelief and heartbreak that their season ended so abruptly, catcher JT Realmuto consoling Orion. Nick Castellanos running in from right field to put his arms around Orion. Manager Rob Thomson waiting at the top step for his pitcher to hug him and remind him that he was loved. Sometimes we think so much about outcomes and performances that we forget that these are just people. With real emotions. And in that moment Orion had his team loving all over him because when you play with somebody for 162, plus spring training, plus playoffs… you become family.
Were they sad they lost? Of course. But their heartbreak for Orion and support for him was clear and great to witness. In a moment of defeat and total shock , the Phillies showed true class and support for their young player who made a mistake.
Well done Phillies.
And congrats Dodgers.

@sarahanne1212 His shirt in the picture is a good look.

[Kurt @KurtfuffleInStL]

@sarahanne1212 Uh, not sure how to follow THAT except to mumble ‘Happy Birthday’ to my fellow Virgo… 🎂

@AugieNash @Turn2Dude @SamSmitty9 The Giants beat writer Susan Slusser (excellent) recently speculated about the Giants acquiring him.

‘Youngry Birds’ sucks as a slogan.
Thanks, that’s all.

[Kurt @KurtfuffleInStL]

@AugieNash Great stuff, thanks!

@cardscookie I am more irritated by speaker phone convos on elevators but am on board with you.

For ⁦@llockness⁩, wherever you are!
