Cardinals Fan Makes A Mess Out Of Catching Foul Ball
In the seventh inning of yesterday's Cardinals-Cubs game, Mark Ellis hit a foul ball down the right field line and into the stands.

Kentucky Beats Louisville, Has Most Orderly Couch Fire Ever
In the early morning Saturday, a few hours after Kentucky stormed back to beat Louisville 74-69 and advance to the Elite Eight, we received this video.

New St. Louis Ballpark Village Has A Ridiculous Dress Code
This year, a massive dining and entertainment hub known as the St. Louis Ballpark Village is set to open across the street from Busch Stadium.
