The St. Louis Blues are champions!!! Celebrate with them Saturday at the 2019 Blues Championship Parade & Rally! The parade in St. Louis will start at noon at 18th St. & Market St., and end at Broadway & Market St. The rally will take place after the rally at the Gateway Arch.

Harrison Bader’s two-out double in the top of the 9th inning tied the game with New York Mets 4-4, before the rains came and suspended the contest Thursday night going into the bottom of the 9th. The suspended game will be played at 5:10 today with the regular scheduled game to follow on KSMO Radio. Bader went 3-4 with two doubles and two stolen bases and Paul DeJong homered for St. Louis.

Nicky Lopez homered and Whit Merrifield doubled home two more to lead the Kansas City Royals to a 7-3 win over the Detroit Tigers in a game played in Omaha to win the series. The Royals will be in Minnesota this weekend to face the 1st place Twins starting tonight.
