Timeless beauty

The Cardinals scored 7 times in the 9th Monday night to beat the Reds 10-9, which calls to mind the following:

"You can't sit on a lead and run a few plays into the line and just kill the clock. You've got to throw the ball over the goddamn plate and give the other man his chance. That's why baseball is the greatest game of them all." -- Earl Weaver

For the record, Weaver's Orioles won at least 100 games in a season in three different decades.
