Pictures of my trip to St. Louis and Chicago

I am a huge fan of this site and an occasional poster. My girlfriend and i recently traveled from our home in manitoba, canada to watch the cubs play the cards in st. louis and the cubs play the reds in chicago. We were able to watch the first three games in st. louis, traveled to chicago on the sunday, watched the monday and tuesday games in chicago and flew home on wednesday. We took several hundred pictures with a pentax digital slr. i uploaded all the pictures to a public photo sharing site and organized the best ones into seven different albums. i havent tagged them all yet or written a description for each picture yet but i am working on it. there is an album for all the games we attended plus albums of the gateway arch in st. louis, busch stadium tour and an album of pictures we took while on a boat tour of the chicago river and downtown area. click on the link below:

we had really good seats for the games in st.louis and even better ones in chicago. we sat right in the front row behind homeplate across the aisle from the pink hat guy. there is some really awesome pictures in that album including the mark derosa final at bat and some really good live action pictures. the tour pictures are really nice too and will give anybody who hasnt been to busch stadium or on the river in chicago an idea what they are like. i hope you all like the pictures that my gf took. feel free to comment

Nice pics!!
Although I'm rather aghast to see that He Who Shall Not Be Named was in attendance. It's a wonder the Cubs were able to take 3 of 4 with that racket going on.
Don't tase me, bro!

Does Soriano's defense at 2B really cost more runs than in LF?  He makes a lot fewer errors in LF since misplays and mental mistakes aren't figured into the stats, but I have to imagine that his mistakes are more physical at 2B.  Any thoughts?  Is there a statistic on this?
