GoodEyeGoodEyeGoodEyeGoodEyeGoodEye



"Good eye!" the Cards screamed--
"Good eye!" Colby heard.
By the fourth time it had become absurd.
But the fifth of Rasmus's free passes
Brought home the winner, slow as molasses.



*The Cardinals outfielder drew 5 walks against five different Kansas City Royals pitchers in one game on Saturday, May 21st. None of the walks was intentional, but Rasmus's final walk did drive home the winning run in the 10th. The Royals' staff issued 13 total walks in the game, an amazing 1170 feet worth of charity chalk. The single-game record for walks is 6, jointly held by Jeff Bagwell, Jimmy Foxx and Andre Thornton.
