Just joining...so pardon me if this has been said...

Add me to the list of people eating crow on that Duncan home run.

For those optimistic few out there...

I know it is an extremely small sample size, and it is probably just a hot streak…but since Duncan bottomed out at .228/.328/.339 during last week’s Detroit series, he’s been on fire. I said during the KC series that I thought his ABs started looking a little different…a little more focused and meaningful…in the 6 games since the DET series, he has this line:

.368/.455/.737 (OPS 1.192) He has 1 doubnle, 2 homers, 6 rbi, and 3 walks in 22 PAs.

Like I said…VERY SMALL sample size, probably a hot streak, but I can hope like hell it’s a turning of the tide for him.

Duncan stays in the game in LF

The only one who liked the Cardinals so much he became a St. Louis Cardinals football fan.

why bother taking Skip out

My friend was flying over STL during Dunc's homer

and he said the plane nearly got hit by a flying cow. True story.

Patiently awaiting Mulder's return, circa 2012

Okay

this is the best part of the lineup to win the game with a swing of the bat

Im calling an Ankiel winner

with the Dunc HR off a LHP and other recent oddities that I cannot currently think of, it makes perfect sense

If Ankiel hits a walk off homerun

the earth will begin to spin backwards, so beware

Man, this AL guy is the TV announcer? Wow, Terrible. I have had radio for years. Love Shannon, Rooney. What is the deal? Boring, lazy, and does he even like the Cards? We don’t need Holliday (Lud, Albert, Ank = 49 homers). we need pitching! (C.C.) Wellemeyer is done, and Mulder won’t make it back, period. Lets end this walk-off style! 300!

Looking for VHS/DVD second half season Cards games from 2000.
