DAVID GREENE, HOST:

UNIDENTIFIED ANNOUNCER #1: Are all these fans cheering for me?

GREENE: They might regret that because of what St. Louis did on the next pitch.

UNIDENTIFIED ANNOUNCER #1: Grand slam.

GREENE: St. Louis manager Mike Matheny.

MIKE MATHENY: I'm not a cat person, but I sure like that one.

GREENE: St. Louis seemed out of the playoff race but no longer - maybe a team with nine lives. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
