Hilarious, but definitely not real

Get A Brain, Morans!


The writer of that headline obviously didn't read the sign closely enough, either.

By the way, the Baseball's Best Fans blog had some choice tweets after Heyward's bee attack . . . such as this one.

Surely they meant it in an endearing way

Best fans in baseball.

I thought it was weird how ESPN switched over to a random Bryce Harper at bat during the telecast last night.  Lots of people are suggesting they just didn't want their mikes picking up the "N" word again from the Cardinal fans.

Looks like the claims are false. Thought it was bizarre the NYDN would have picked up on it.

Doesn't sound like Kate Feldman would be welcomed in Jimmy Connors' hometown:

Busch is now the 11th MLB park I've been to.  When I first walked in and looked around it looked very nice.  Then the PA announcer started talking and was barely understandable, not that it mattered. 

The scoreboard is terrible.   Its primary purpose seems to be to play commercials.  The lineups are there (unless it's between innings) but when a hitter comes to the plate his stats are so tiny they can't be read.  The out of town scores are there but displayed on a hideous bright green background.  You can see the scores but it is hard to tell which game it is in some cases.

I wouldn't say don't go there but don't expect too much.

If you have some time to kill in St. Louis, visiting the Cardinals Hall of Fame and Museum isn't a bad way to go.   There are lots of videos to watch.  The one of Lou Brock's hit reminded me that it was a liner off the pitcher that went into foul territory.  Seeing Eddie Gaedel's 1/8 jersery was interesting.   The few Tony LaRussa videos were as obnoxious as you would expect.
