#STLCards get swept by Brewers as offense goes silent behind Gray’s excellent start St. Louis went 2-22 with RISP this series Lynn gets the start tomorrow at 6:45 PM against the Diamondbacks

Nothing’s going to change until the fans demand it. And the way to demand change is through economics—tickets sales, merchandise sales. I have to drive over 2 hours one way to attend a game; I don’t have it in me to make that drive to essentially throw away money on a bad game.

Bill Dewitt needs to have a press release ready at the end of this game listing everyone who is being fired today. I have been a game for 45 years—never has the team looked so bad that I regret buying tickets and planning on making the 4 hour round trip.

Walz: The other side spent a lot of time promising that they would leave things up to the states. I'm willing to take them at their word for that. The moment they try to bring a hateful agenda to this state, I'm ready to stand up and fight for the way we do things here.
