Official Thread of the St. Louis Cardinals

[tidwell]

Jeff Francis (1-4, 6.19) vs. Anthony Reyes (0-5, 5.46) tonight in St. Louis. Savor this moment, Anthony. There won't be many occasions this season where you're the starting pitcher with the lowest ERA.

 

[tidwell]

2-2 Bottom 8th...

Ludwick with another RBI.

 

[tidwell]

So they intentionally walked the bases loaded to get to Hawpe. Apparently that's a better matchup for Johnson... who then walked Hawpe.

3-2, top 9, 2 outs, bases still loaded.

 

[tidwell]

Rockies closer has hit Taguchi and Rolen.

Pujols fouled out. Ludwick up.

 

[tidwell]

Taguchi stole 3rd, Ludwick pops out. Edmonds is the last hope.

 

[tclowers23]

They lose again.

Worst team in Major League Baseball.

 

[tidwell]

And he did nothing.

Rockies win 3-2.

Haven't seen it, but apparently it could've been a lot worse. Rockies manager got ejected in the 9th arguing a homerun call...

Reyes didn't pitch that bad for a change. Only gave up 2 runs in 6 innings.

0 offense once again, unfortunately.

12-18

 

[tclowers23]

Can't really expect to win games the way the Cards are swinging the bat.

 

[tclowers23]

Pujols: .259 avg
Rolen: .208
Edmonds: .184
Eckstein: .216
Molina: .263

Wainwright (2-2), Reyes (0-5), and Wells (1-6) all have ERAs over 5.00. That doesn't help either.

They lose again.

Worst team in Major League Baseball.

[tidwell]

Pujols had that 12 game hitting streak snapped the other day. Now he's working on a 3 game hitless streak. :wacko:

 

[tidwell]

Taylor Buchholz (1-1, 8.04) vs. Brad Thompson (1-0, 4.67) tonight in game two.

 

[tidwell]

1-0 Rockies so far in the bottom of the 4th. Taylor "Cy Young" Buchholz having no problems with the Cardinals lineup.

 

[tidwell]

Jim Edmonds is 3-3!

Too bad the rest of the team is 2-20.

Still 1-0, bottom 7

 

[tidwell]

We have a run sighting in St. Louis.

2RBI double by Spiezio. Still 2 on with 1 out.

 

[tidwell]

Kennedy drives the other two in! Offensive explosion! :rock2:

 

[tidwell]

4-1, bottom 8

 

[tidwell]

Cardinals win! 4-1! Party in the streets! Go crazy, even!

Thompson didn't pitch half bad. Only gave up 1 run through 5 innings.

13-18

 

[tidwell]

Jason Hirsh (2-2, 3.82) vs. Adam Wainwright (2-2, 5.60) this afternoon in St. Louis.
