Cardinals 7 Reds 1

Dear Cards,

ALBERT IS GONE (AND WE'VE ONLY PLAYED 5 GAMES), BUT

The team is leading the league in hits, home runs, doubles, total bases, extra base hits, and tied for first in runs scored.  We are for fourth in walks and are tied for first in strikeouts (unfortunately).

Last year, the Cardinals had the best offense in the NL. When Albert left, everyone assumed it wouldn't be a top offense.  I hope the guys continue hitting well and prove all the doubters wrong.  There are several proven, certified legit hitters on the Cardinals roster. 

Meanwhile, we're five games into the season and I already owe Cardinal Glennon's "Homers For Health" $2.25.  I'm not counting, but at this pace I'll owe around $72.00 at the end of the season (ha, ha-- for someone who isn't counting, I sure did the math).  My donation to Cardinal Glennon is just a small drop in the bucket, but it will make a big difference in the life of a child when added to all the other small donations! (Cue the following cliches: "Together We Can Make a Difference" and "Every Little Bit Helps.")  If you, dear reader, haven't pledged,  please do so!

Lets win today and tomorow, 'birds!

'Til Later
