Skip Schumaker
Apparently, Skip’s generosity brings all the stars to the yard (or the church in this case). The host of the charity event “STARS 4 Baby Reesa” worked with some St Louis and Mizzou sports favorites and an incredible team of volunteers from Sunrise UMC to create a miracle. While the quick takeaway from the charity […]
The response to the “STARS 4 Baby Reesa” so far has been nothing short of overwhelming. The wonderful people at Sunrise UMC who are coordinating this event have been going full speed and non-stop since early this morning. Thank you for all your patience. Despite what many people have said, there are still tickets available. […]

UPDATED 07/17/2012: Many thanks to the folks from 101 ESPN The Fast Lane for giving us some linkage love today. To get the absolute latest information, click here. Several weeks ago I posted information about Skip Schumaker’s upcoming charity event to benefit Reesa Stutzman (original post here). Some relevant information has since become available, and […]
While some see Matt Carpenter getting the start at 2nd base last night as just a way to get him some at-bats, I see something else. I see the seemingly innocuous occurrence as a harbinger of something in the works. How else might one explain the sudden need to get Matt some playing time? After […]
Without a game to talk about, the Cardinals having Monday off in preparation for this week’s inter-league road trip, I felt it a good time to clear out the ole’ PH8 inbox – from time to time we receive notes from various folks with Cardinal-related information they’d like us to pass along to you, the three […]

Skip Schumaker – Champion in more than 1 sense… You probably do not know Sean, Jamie, and Reesa Stutzman. I believe it even less probable that you have heard of Krabbe Leukodystrophy. Fortunately, Skip Schumaker knows both the family and a little about Krabbe Leukodystrophy. Even more importantly, Skip has stepped up in a big […]

You could practically hear the groans echoing through Cardinals Nation when the MLB Network graphic popped on screen for the team’s first pick in Monday’s draft. The selection, at No. 19 overall, was Texas A&M right-handed pitcher Michael Wacha. The comp listed for him by the MLBN broadcast was Jon Garland. Jon Garland? Oh, c’mon! […]

Ask a group of Cardinal fans about why the team sits 1.5 games behind the Reds in the NL Central division, and the 2 words most likely to appear in responses are “injuries” and “pitching”. Certainly, injuries to key players have piled up and taken a toll on the team. Losing both a pitching Carpenter […]

Perhaps no Cardinals player receives more scrutiny day in, day out for performances in small sample sizes than Tyler Greene. Greene has no shortage of detractors who have watched him struggle during his stretches at the major league level, and he has a dedicated group of fans who manage to find some reason for […]
