Pre-Game: Pirates vs. Cardinals


*Remember back to yesterday's picture of old Busch and new Busch. New Busch was built on part of old Busch. In this picture, check out the half circle beyond left field of new Busch. You can still see the outline of old Busch. That's why I posted these consecutive days. The Arch and Mississippi River, in the background with much of the city, is pretty cool as well.
