ST LOUIS, MO NOTE: I am excited about Cardinal Baseball opening up in a couple weeks. I used to make about two to three trips to Busch Stadium. I am wondering, how many of you use the Metrolink to go to the ball park or when you travel around St. Louis? Here is a link to the story from Joel Currier of the St. Louis Post Dispatch and an excpert will follow. -sd A man standing on the MetroLink platform at Busch Stadium was shot in the head when a gun went off inside a train, apparently as a group of people accosted other passengers and tried to rob them late Sunday night. The injured man was taken to a hospital after the shooting. His condition was not immediately available, but his injuries were grave and homicide detectives were called in to investigate the confusing shooting. The injured man was believed to be in his 40s or early 50s and may have been homeless, police said.
