the TOMAHAWK Shop 404 visits Baseball Town USA and the REDBIRDS for a possible preview of the NLDS or NLCS...a Four-Piece NL Treat..."WEEKEND BENDERS" BRAVES @ REDBIRDS in some Top Shelf Hardball #ATLHardball #STLHardball

The Tomahawk Shop 404 comes in into the Gateway of the West with the Show's #1 Record and a surefire NL East Chip for 2013. The Braves have been banged up of late but players like All-Star Freddie Freeman, Chris Johnson, and Adrelton Simmons among others the Braves are for real in the NL and the Show.

The Redbirds come in fighting for the rugged and the Show's #1 Division (sorry AL East) the NL Central. The Buccos and Red Legs live in the same neighborhood as someone is going to have to separate from the pack sooner rather than later. They come in as we go to press a game back of the Buccos and a 1 1/2 ahead of the Red Legs as w head into Labor Day Hardball. A Four-Piece from New Busch Stadium and the Show's #1 hardball city in St. Louis, Missouri.

The Redbirds are bringing it with their 1st three in the Rotation going in Wainright, Miller, and Lynn with Kelly pitching well.
