BASEBALL
I'm getting ready for my second Cardinals game of the season. YAY!
And it is fricking pouring rain. BOO!
But the game on Tuesday (first of the season) was GREAT. We stomped on the Brewers.
Katie and I sat in the front row of the upper deck, right behind home plate, so we had a great view of the whole field. Only problem? It was Jackie Robinson night, so all the Cardinals were wearing 42 and no name on their jerseys. Which wouldn't have been as big a challenge last year, but our lineup is very different this year.
"Nice hit... number 42!"
Katie: "How am I supposed to figure out who I'm cheering for?"
Kim: "You could just look at the scoreboard. That CF next to Rick Ankiel does not mean that he's playing for Cystic Fibrosis."
See a little bit of Rick in action here.
Only one of the Brewers decided to wear the 42 jersey: Prince Fielder. And he acted like a huge jackass all night long. If you're going to wear a classy guy's number, you should act like a classy guy, not throw your bat like a little bitch every time you strike out.
Also, what happened to Josh, the swarthy bat boy? Has he been replaced?
