How Have We Won 16 Games?

Over the weekend "BillPickle" sent me the following item related to the Cardinals: Maybe the Cardinals need a Bull Durham moment. Of course since Tony and half the team speak Spanish, he and Jose Oquendo's exchange would be something like this*: Tony: Usted tipos. Usted lollygag la pelota alrededor del terreno central. Usted lollygag su manera hacia abajo a primero. Usted lollygag en y fuera de la trinchera. ¿Usted sabe lo que que hace usted? ¡Jose! Jose: ¡Lollygaggers! Tony: Lollygaggers! Tony: Jose, lo que es nuestro registro? Jose: 16 y 23 Tony: 16 y 23, ¿CĂłmo ganarĂ­amos nosotros 16? Jose: Es un milagro Tony: Es un milagro *Apologies for the translation. I just ran the text through an online translation service. SOUTHLANDISH: At this point I fear that if La Russa threw the bats at the team in the shower, most of them would wonder what these strange wooden objects were.
