Wow, the Cards really should have won this game. 2 blown plays by the umpires, I mean 2 really obvious outs and the Cubs were called safe on them. Good for MM for standing up to the BS.

Just to clarify. The "Run" at home http://stlouis.cardinals.mlb.com/vid...82569&c_id=stl

And the "Safe" play at 2nd. This is not even arguable. http://stlouis.cardinals.mlb.com/vid...82569&c_id=stl

Anyways. Waino is getting better. His curve ball had the classic movement we are used to seeing. Holliday is still struggling even with the 2 run homer he belted. And the Cards left way to many on base. The only positive thing I can say is it's good to be a Cubs fan right now.

13-1 that should bring the AVG's up. Tyler Green needs to take a permanent trip back down to the minors, he has had his time and is not contributing offensively or defensively to the game. But after that crappy series with the Cubs it was a good night of baseball!

Totally agree about Tyler ... guess Tony was right.

Glad that Jay is back in the line-up. He kicked off the big inning and the team just seems to play better with him in there.

And, what's the deal with Westbrook? He doesn't even seem like the same pitcher that made us cringe every start last year. The wife says he reminds her of Danny Cox ... quite a compliment in my book.

Got the biggest kick out of watching Yadi play 2nd.

Damn, was Yaddi at 2nd? How did I miss that, I saw him at 1st. After the 8th I was barely watching the game, something about being up 11 runs:D

Guess that 20lbs for Jake is a much bigger deal than he would like to let on. Again tonight he was painting the corners:tu

The box score says 1st. Saw him scoop up a grounder and throw the runner out at 1st ... must have been the pitcher covering? The camera showed him with this big grin on his face after the play ... looked like he was having a great time. Guess he must have been on 1st after they moved Carpenter to 3rd ... had the same attention problem you did at that point ... duh ... me bad.

Oh forgot ... Everybody is talking about the 20 lbs. The TV guys said that he has stopped tipping pitches like he did last year.

But, I wonder?

Saw the stats on the starting rotation when I was poking around for the box score: ERAs ... 0.99, 1.30, 1.33, 2.49 and 7.32 (guess who - but hopefully improving). The AP story on the game says that the startrers' 12 wins are the most in MLB.

Don't think McGwire gets enough credit for what we are seeing at the plate. I wonder if, maybe, Lilliquist deserves some of the credit for what we are seeing on the mound?

Congrats to Yaddi for his 4th gold glove and the 1st platinum glove. He had a hell of a game today going 4 for 4 with a 2 run home run!

:r Yes, I believe tipping pitches may have a little more to do with it. Loshe had a "rough" outing today, but the bats backed him up. If they could only do the same for Waino the ERA would not be so high, kind of reminds me of a starter last year.

Base running ..... Ugly.

It was a ballsy move at the end, could have paid off. Could have paid off if someone other than T.G was running.

Nice one Kenny, I mean Michael:D

In all seriousness it is pretty alarming that he is hitting around .223. I really thought he would be taking off by now.

Beltran 2 HR's 7 RBI's sick. Pirates pitching was pretty sick as well, depending how you look at it.

Funny how things change. 17 strike-outs. That was ridiculous.

Last year the trend was piling on runs with 2 outs. This year we seem to have a no sweep clause:D

Think Wano has it back on track?

It's looking like it. The velocity is still down but he has found his movement again.

Looks like we finally swept somebody. Going to the game tomorrow night. Hope they can keep this streak going for at least one more game.
