The stations are also wagering a sampler of beer: Schlafly from St. Louis, Harpoon Brewery from Boston. If the Birds win, 90.7 KWMU staffers will also earn a bottle of Red Sox Cabernet and a tweet from WBUR's account with someone wearing a Cardinals ball cap..@stlpublicradio DONE. We bet a @harpoon_brewery sampler @RedSox win and up the stakes to include THE COVETED BEARD: pic.twitter.com/Pf1DYuRUvf

4. The Cathedrals - If all this sports smack-talk is wearing on your soul, join the Strike Out Trafficking World Series Challenge between St. Louis' Christ Church Cathedral and Boston's Cathedral Church of St. Paul. The churches are taking donations on Facebook, and the city with the winning team gets to choose which nonprofit gets the money. St. Louis chose Magdalene St. Louis, which provides housing and resources for women who are survivors of abuse, prostitution, trafficking, addiction and homelessness. The churches have already raised $4,200, and you can donate until first pitch tonight.
