But WTF? The crown seats don't have anything that's inclusive? Most of those high-end seats at Busch have a fair number of all-inclusive food options - beer, hot dogs, nachos; basic stuff. At the K it's $125 for the tickets and it's still $10 for a beer.

That's pretty goddamn absurd.

Glass is a cheap, no-good mother****ing bundle of sticks-ass, KC-hating cock sucker and a bad human! He's there to get your money and is going to rip that shit from your pocket at every turn until you have none. He's the worst of the worst person in the world and only loves money. I'm pretty sure he clubs baby seals too, but that's not important right now, he needs to not fail as an owner (but there seems to be no hope in sight for that to happen). He's a greedy pussy and every level of staff under him are pussies too - and the worst at what they do. **** Glass!

There, I said it, he clubs baby seals!

David Glass' favorite team has the best record in baseball and won today. He's enjoying baseball this summer just fine, thank you very much.

Actually, that's the best offensive game they've played all month. Three runs! Thanks, Waino!

ummm crown seats is anything you can drink or eat. They didn't have pizza for my nephew and they went up and got some from a vender.

David and Dan Glass are worthless pieces of shit, make no mistake.

However, these idiots spent a representable amount of money this year. Not a lot, no. But enough to put a decent product on the field. The problem is that Dayton ****ing Moore is a mother****ing idiot, and this was established as fact as early as the summer of '09.

I was in the diamond club seats, so not quite the same section, I guess.

I was right behind that rail. I don't have the pictures b/c my phone died, but I figured I was about 30 feet to your 8 o'clock.

Your seats must've been more expensive than ours then. I still couldn't believe that $125/seat didn't so much as get me a hot dogs and coke.

Catchers are often judged, fairly or unfairly, by the number of titles they win.

Well, Yadi has backstopped 2 of them now and there aren't a ton of guys that can say that. He'll probably end up with somewhere near 10 GGs and by the time his career closes he'll have very solid offensive numbers.

Give him 3 more years similar two the last 2 and then 2 more years similar to the 4 before that and he's in the Hall with relative ease.

It's really amazing how he's developed as a hitter. I mentioned it elsewhere, but he's essentially a miniature version of Pujols in his prime - there's just not a good place to pitch him. He obviously doesn't have the power that Pujols had, but he's patient and he will take what a pitcher gives him. He's an outstanding professional hitter and hopefully he'll get a little more MVP consideration this year.

Waino just doesn't walk a lot of people. He was off his game today. The dude could end up winning the Cy Young award. I wouldn't judge your team based on a game against Waino.

They don't first pitch hack nearly as much now that La Russa and McGwire are gone. This is a far more patient team overall.

The numbers don't actually support this.

And honestly, nor does a fair recollection of events. McGwire always espoused a very patient hitting approach and a simple 'back up the box' swing. Mike Easler and Mitchell Page were also similar in this regard.

Hal McRae was a 'grip it and rip it' kind of coach that did not mid first pitch swinging, but that wasn't a common LaRussa theme and it certainly wasn't something you could put at McGwire's feet. Even now, drawing walks is about the only thing the Dodgers do well.

2011: 812 times where they swung and put the first ball in play: 5 times per game.

2012: 810 times where they swung and put the first ball in play: 5 times per game.

2013: 219 times where they swung and put the first ball in play: 4.46 times per game.

That's a pretty significant drop off, and I don't think it's explained by this team being full of swing and miss hackers.

Patience isn't solely defined by walks taken. I don't know what the pitches/PA is for this team, but I'd be surprised if it was the same or lower than the previous two years.

I guess the one thing I will remember is Molina smashing that ball and a full house of red going banana's the K at it's most electric...but for the opposite team.
