Nice, a squirrel just ran through the batter's box in St Louis - just as the pitch crossed the plate.

It was a ball.

I'm not an expert on Florida, it's geography, demographics, and traffic patterns etc, however this post off hfboards sums up my theory on why the Rays have such a low attendance:

It would be the same if they put the Saddledome out in Airdie. Everyone in the SW would not likely bother except in some special occasions.

I can see it now,

Ventura goes out to argue a call while in the Ballpark at Arlington, the argument gets heated, then all of a sudden you hear Stone Cold Steve Austin's music start, Nolan Ryan stands up, jumps over the wall from the owner's box onto the field and proceeds to beat the ever loving poop out of Ventura

Yay! The only team I despise in MLB is the Yankees. So glad they are out. Don't care who wins now.

Yup, mine too. As they say on YES, SEE YA!!!! Funny that Kelly could hit one over their 'fly ball wall' designed such for the Spanks but they couldn't do it. Lol! Now that the evil empire is done, cheer for Doc & the Phil's now!!

What an intense game, I'm still wired from watching it. Glad to see the Tigers come through, now on to Texas!

Brewers win in the 10th. Niger Morgan drives home the winning run, then gets 2 "F*** YA!"'s out when the reporter shoves the mic in his face. Awesome.

Even if the Phillies come back to win this game, what can you say about Chris Carpenter? What an unbelievable performance.

St. Louis giving new meaning to the term Wild CARD

Carpenter pitched a gem for the win
