What is the Over/Under of these Lucky 13 games with the Cards and Cubbies that the 'stros will win? I'm going with 5, hoping for 7.
I finally made it once. A couple of June's ago. It was 50ish, drizzling, blowing, miserable. I had a ball! It was the most fun atmosphere -- so unHouston-like for baseball. In fact, I have been to @ 1 1/2 dozen ML baseball parks in my life (going to Fenway for the 1st time this summer) and it is 1 or 1a most fun. The Cubs game was v Cards and Daryl Kile. 7th inning stretch song was led by Jack Buck -- and everyone booed! (Good naturedly, Buck looked like he was thrilled to be booed in that environment!).
You've got to get Major in the bleacher seats for one of the games - absolutely crazy. 50% or more of the people there don't care who wins, or even who's playing, they're just there to get drunk & scream for Sammy. It's a blast, as I'm sure you know.
1 - 1, 11 to go. Thursday nite doesn't look good. Friday nite doesn't look good. (Recently Bags does not look good, but I do believe in JB.)
