Brewers catcher Jonathan Lucroy's All-Star ad poked fun at the St. Louis Cardinals, their NL Central rivals, and it was legitimately funny. Today, someone asked St. Louis manager Mike Matheny for his thoughts on the anti-Cardinals spot, and he thought it was hilarious. Nah, just kidding....

Guy Dressed As Superman Breaks Up Pathetic Fight At Cardinals Game
Two sad, possibly drunk guys just sort of lean on each other in the way that sad, possibly drunk guys tend to do when they start a fight that they don't necessarily want to finish, and the world cries out for a hero to stop this madness.

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.
