When Anheuser-BUSCH gives you tickets at BUSCH Stadium, you know they're gonna be goooood!! Not only did I have "Green Seats" (with free unlimited food) right behind the Cardinals on-deck circle, but they also hooked me up with an extra set of tickets in a luxury suite (with more free unlimited food).
Unfortunately, because of some afternoon rain, there was no batting practice, but that hardly mattered because this was all so much fun.
As for Albert Pujols, he was sitting on 683 career home runs and I was torn between watching him up close from the fancy seats vs. heading to the outfield to try to catch No. 684. I ended up doing a combo and splitting my time between several different locations -- and of course it was great to see other Cardinals superstars like Paul Goldschmidt, Nolan Arenado, Yadier Molina, and Adam Wainwright . . . and some top-tier talent on the visiting Milwaukee Brewers like former MVP's Christian Yelich and Andrew McCutchen, plus unhittable closer Josh Hader.
FYI, the guy who threw me the baseball is named Matt Erickson. He's the Brewers Assistant Hitting Coach and Infield Coach.
If you're interested in seeing the videos (yes, TWO of ‘em) that I did three years ago when Anheuser-Busch hooked things up for me in St. Louis, here they are:

Those videos were filmed in 2019. This new one was filmed on May 26, 2022 by "Fenway Chris" (@yonnernyc on Insta), and it was edited by me. Thanks for watching and stay tuned for one more Cardinals video coming next.
