Fun in St. Louis

Larry Walker finds out how fun it is to play for St. Louis fans:

Tony Womack scored the go-ahead run on a bases-loaded walk from Danny Graves in the eighth inning and Walker hit the next pitch for a grand slam in a 7-2 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday night.

Walker earned his first curtain call with the Cardinals after his ninth homer of the season. He has three homers with St. Louis and is batting .370 in nine games.

"I was pushed out of the dugout to get out there, not sure knowing what to do,'' Walker said. "It was fun to go out there, it was fun to win, it was fun to hear the crowd get as loud as they were.''

As a Reds fan, I hate to admit it, but the Cardinals look unbeatable this year. By that, I mean I see them going all the way through the Series. Up and down the line, in the pitching rotation, and in the bullpen, they are simply a terrific team. It should be a fun October for Cards fans!
