PNC park is empty

Why do they even bother to schedule a 12:30 game on a Wednesday?

I loves these early day games. Makes the work day go so much quicker.

Albert Pujols? More like Albert BOOjols. Figure it out soon, Albert, we need you!

The aforementioned Pirates feed works.

I couldn't get a single Cards' affiliate.

Here's a question: For those of us who subscribe to XM, why can't we listen to the feed online through XM's website?

What?

Baseball is better on radio IMO.

Me too, but I've got a bunch of summer memories of sitting in the backyard or lounging on the porch listening to ball games.

Because of licensing with MLB and the advertisers. I'm not sure any of the channels that have advertising are on the web.

One of my all time favorite childhood memories is listening to games on the radio with my dad while it was raining locally. We'd sit in the garage with the door open and listen to a Card's away game, or some other one, while the rain fell outside.
