So what do you have to do to win this sucker, you might ask?
Simple. Guess how many runs the Cardinals will score in this weekend’s series against the Kansas City Royals. Post your guess in the comments section below (with a valid e-mail address, so we can contact you if you win – no valid e-mail, no win), and the nearest guess to the actual total will win!
Here’s the best part – the deadline is the first pitch of tomorrow’s game at 1:10pm Central Time. WE’RE GIVING YOU A HEAD START! You can place your guess before tonight’s game, or you can wait until you know how many the Redbirds score in the Friday night tilt.
Sorry Dennis and Josh – you’re not eligible. Maybe we should extend that to Daniel from C70 at the Bat as well, since he wins pretty much every contest here… (Just kidding Daniel, you can enter.)
Get your guesses in below, win the AnyDate St. Louis Cardinals History Newspaper!

Since this is supposed to be the end of the world weekend, I’m thinking 6 + 6 + 6, so 18. Perhaps that might be a bit too apocalyptic. OK, I was really thinking the Cardinals are putting up a bit over 5 runs per game, so let’s round up and you still get 18.
Is that your final answer ?
Yes. 18
Oh – and in the event of two guesses that are the same, um, we’ll send something to each person with the correct guess. We’ll figure it out.
I’m down…but so is the Cards run production this weekend.
Give me 10 runs and a Cards sweep.
Of course, you know I’m going to enter. Then hope everyone else ignores this free giveaway because this time it’s not opinion-based and so I can’t put in 20 entries.
Looking at the schedule, you’d think the Cards would put up a lot of runs. But they’ve not seen these guys and we don’t know completely the status of Holliday and Berkman. I’m going to go conservative and say they will score 13 in the series, but I reserve the right to change my pick if they blow up (or, conversely, get shut down) tonight.
I’ll go with 16… It’s anybody’s guess and just a crap shoot so I’m not going to bother providing reasoning lol
11, and they win the series showing how good their pitching is.
Eleven runs. Eight Saturday & three Sunday…which is exactly two more than Garcia will need on Sunday. Ok, honestly, who has any clue…Even as I’m sitting here typing this, I’m considering changing it to seven. Nah, eleven it is–let the hit parade begin!
I’ll take 9 runs.
Um, I’m gonna go in for 9 runs total. I feel that this weekend is gonna be more of a pitcher’s matchup, but the Birds still have some bats.
Ummm, I’ll guess 12. Big offensive showing today (hopefully).
csrds will score 6 runs on sat @KC
Twelve. Four today, eight tomorrow.
13 runs! (I like that number because of a certain spinning shortstop… need I go on??) 😉
Alright. I’m going to go with 8 runs. I’d like more but let’s just see what goes down.
12 Runs, no coherant reason
I’ll take 5 runs scored by the Redbirds today, please.
Aaaand since apparently I can’t read, I’ll add 4 tomorrow so a total of 9 in the series.
