Looking forward to this series. Wish I could have made it down. Still need to get to Cinci sometime soon.
The way STL is playing dare we hope to win as many as 2 games? The GAB will be rockin' and the players into it big time, just for Dusty's sake, but STL seems like a runaway train right now.
Way too early in the season to be talking like that, Maldez. This is a huge test for the Birds. I'm glad we have Waino and Lynn starting two of the three. Lyons makes me a tad nervous in your park... and he doesn't start games well (but finishes very strong).
Career batting average vs. Leake
Matt Carpenter - 1 for 2, single, .500
Yadier Molina - 4 for 12, double, HR, .333
Matt Holliday - 6 for 14, double, .429
Allen Craig - 0-6,
Carlos Beltran - 1-15, 1 HR, 4 K's, .067
David Freese - 4-8, double, HR, .500
D. Descalso - 1-3, .333
Jon Jay 3-12, double, .250
Career batting average vs. Wainwright
Choo - 1-3, .333
Cozart - 1-11, .091
Votto - 2-20, double, .100
Phillips - 10-36, double, HR, .278
Bruce - 6-21, 1 HR, .286, 8 K's
Frazier - 2-8, double, HR, .250
Paul - 0-5, 1 K
Mesoraco - 0-2, 1 K
Ludwick is 3-10, .300 with a double and HR against his buddy.
On paper, looks like a sure fire loss.
But that's why they play the games.
Obviously, the worst case scenario is getting swept, as that would put the Reds 6 back. If the Reds can just keep from being swept, and only lose 1 game in the standings, then I'll be ok.
Chapman should be well rested, as well. Was Monday the last time he pitched?
...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.
I'm glad to see Craig instead of Adams tonight.

What are the Cards' lines vs. the "New Leake"?

I just saw it reported that Dave Duncan's wife passed away. May she RIP.

Really? Adams has done little since April. He (and 4 other Cards) jumped on fat pitches right down central last nite. Any time you see Holliday hit one out the pitcher made a mistake.
The lineup snafu for the Cards tonite is not playing LHB Descalso, who is smokin' hot in favor of an ice cold RHB Kosma. Rediculous.
Here's hoping Leake is still the Leake of late, Votto's mini-slump ends and Choo's loooong drought is over. Time to take care of business.
Doesn't look to be a likely night for Joey to break out of his little slump. Hopefully the "new" Leake can't shut the Cards down.
