(Unless of course you were actually in Busch Stadium!!)
Cardinals greats -- Stan Musial, Ozzie Smith, Lou Brock, and others -- were featured in the pre-game show.
And the President, who threw out the first ball, was there to greet all the current players and those baseball greats.
It didn't hurt our fun either that the President threw the first pitch to 
Later, when the President spent some time in the TV booth with Joe Buck, son of the long-time "voice of the Cardinals," Jack Buck, we captured five minutes of their conversation while the game was going on (it took forever to upload, so we had to toditch it for the moment). President Obama seemed to be having such a good time, and sounded so relaxed and real -- we enjoyed every minute!
And we captured a shorter interview with Albert too. He, like most of the top hitters on the National League, didn't do much hitting last night -- but we love to watch him nevertheless.

Hope no dog minded this non-canine interlude.

We absolutely love your enthusiasm for your team! We think it's wonderful! Mom watched some America's Got Talent show last night! She flipped right past the baseball game! Dumb, huh?!
Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch
Sounds like a great time, and very exciting! But if the President was there enjoying the game, who was minding the country? Oh well, I guess even the President has to take time out to enjoy hotdogs and a ballgame. It's a great American tradition. :)

We watched it too!

Sounds like a lot of fun. The humans here were glad that the one representative of the KC Royals didn't embarrass and did so well pitching.
woo, the OP Pack
We enjoyed that game also.
Hi Guys!!
We LOVED the game. Watched the whole thing, including all that pre-game and post-game stuff. Also watched the Home Run Derby on Monday night.
We are HUGE baseball fans here. Our favorite teams are the Yankees and the Phillies.
The city of St. Louis and the Cardinals were wonderful hosts. They put on a tremendous show. The game was fun. And, the right team won! Hehe...
Great post.
Go Yankees!
Love and Koobuss KIsses,

pee ess My father is Yankee Doodle Bandit of Rexleigh, so my love of the Yankees comes naturally.
I confess, we watched the beginning, with the awards, and the President throwing the pitch, and then, well, I fell asleep. But I like the idea of hotdogs. I think that I missed the hotdogs while I was asleep. *sigh*

I must tell ya Jake 'n Just Harry that we are not baseball fans but we are BALL FANS.....same thing isn't it ??? Only difference is if anyone throws the ball.....we're gonna run ta get it.....we certainly would not let anyone hit it with a bat and surely not outta the ball park....why that is just wasteful......balls are built ta fit right inta yer mouth.....mine especially......
Dewey Dewster here....

The All Star game was pretty fun, too bad Tanner's fave Justin Upton did terrible. My Yankees looked pretty good, it was pawesome when Rivera got Upton out, I was really getting on Tanner. St Louis did a great job putting on a great game.
It was fun to watch. We wish Albert played for our Reds. That would be awesome!!! Our boy lives most of the year in St. Louis with his mom (Webster Groves actually). It is a fun place to visit and we love the zoo and science center.
Lots of treats,
Tinkerbell, Oscar and Tucker
