This time, it was a gorgeous day, so no worries about a rainout. I stood in line for First Pitch, which was already long by the time I got there. I got a voucher, then when paying at the ticket window, got another voucher. But I would definitely be at the game. First Pitch is a random drawing of 2 tickets, anywhere in the stadium.
When I returned shortly before the game, I got my tickets and ended up with standing room. Not good, since I've been standing for the most of the day so far. My feet are hurting so much. I first went to the 3rd base side, then to the 1st base side, so I can stand in the shade. But my feet were in too much pain, so I sat in an empty seat by the 3rd inning. I did notice a bunch of seats being empty throughout the game. No one seemed to notice or care.
The Cardinals faced the Brewers, and it turned out to be a pitchers' duel. The Brewers managed only 2 hits in the entire game, but one of them was a Corey Hart solo home run, which turned out to be just enough. Meanwhile, the Cardinals couldn't get anything going against their former teammate, Jeff Suppan, and ended up being shut out 1-0.
First time I have witnessed a shutout.
