The Battlehawks are playoff bound (and somehow have home field advantage?), the Cardinals might actually be back (??), and CITY SC continues their brutal slide in MLS action.It's another wild week in the Gateway to the West—and Gateway Tailgate has you covered. We kick things offwith This Week in STL Sports, where we throw it back to some all-time Cardinals quirks, including a literal between-games player trade. Then it's on to the main course: CITY SC drops another frustrating one to Colorado, the Cardinals split a confusing series with Detroit and Arizona, and the Battlehawks torch San Antonio… at home… on the road…yeah, it's UFL logic. Plus, we debate theCardinals' potential rest-of-season identity, celebrate STL legends on the All-Century Team, and ask: How would youfix the UFL? Subscribe, comment,and tailgate with us every week—this is St. Louis sports, unfiltered.

The Cardinals are surging, the Battlehawks have clinched a playoff spot and technically locked up home field advantage, and CITY SC continues to test the patience of STL fans everywhere. In this week’s episode of Gateway Tailgate, we kick things off with some historic STL sports moments—from Stan Musial breaking Honus Wagner’s NL hit record to Ben Hogan taking the PGA Championship in St. Louis. Then it’stime to dive in: the Cardinals stay hot with series wins over the Phillies and Royals, the Battlehawks edge out Birmingham in a thriller, and Max Duggan keeps the offense moving. Meanwhile, CITY SC coughs up a 2-0 lead to draw with SKC and sleepwalks through a 3-0 loss in Minnesota. We wrap it all up with Adam’s sports trivia and a quick look at the PGA Championship winner. It’s chaos, it’s catharsis—it’s Gateway Tailgate

The Cardinals are finally heating up, the Battlehawks are flying behind Max Duggan, and CITY SC… well, they’re hanging on. In this week’s episode of Gateway Tailgate, we’ve got a packed STL sports roundup that swings from domination to desperation.We kick things off with a trip down memory lane—Stan Musial hits 3,000, Gary Gaetti gets his 2,000th, and Adam drops some STL trivia heat. Then it’s onto the good stuff: the Cardinals have rattled off nine straight wins, sweeping both the Pirates and Nationals. The bullpen’s clicking, the bats are hot, and the vibes? Immaculate. Meanwhile, the Battlehawks notch another win as Max Duggan settles in and the defense clamps down. But it’s not all sunshine—CITY SC continues to frustrate, with a bounce-back Open Cup win overshadowed by another MLS loss to San Diego.
