Pirates strand 47, give game to Cards

Ok.  So maybe it was only like 12 runners left on base, but man, that was painful.  A game which started with lightning and an hour rain delay ended with fireworks.  Adams blasted a 2 run shot in the bottom of the ninth to crush the Pirates hopes.

Cardinals 2, Pirates 0 in a game the Bucs totally dominated.  If at the end of the year, the Pirates are a game out behind St. Louis, this will be THE GAME they should have won.

Busch stadium is really nice.  Sound system is amazing (VT could learn something about how to fill a stadium with sound from these guys). View of the arch from one's seats is quite cool.  It was a fun time, just would have been more fun if the good guys hit the 9th inning homer, rather than a walk-off going the other way.
