On Sunday, the Cardinals won the game but also officially lost Albert Pujols.
Thank gravy for Sunday’s win. Another sweep would have been tough to take.
At least Jason Marquis was thinking of El Hombre; for his fifth straight win he went five innings, gave up five runs, walked five and struck out five. He even threw 55 strikes. Five Alive!
With the quickness: A strong performance by the ersatz 2-5 hitters was nice to see in lieu of the Big Fella … looks like Chris Duncan is up for the time being; his single Sunday was a fine piece of two-strike hitting … Scott Rolen is climbing the NL batting leaders list.
p.s. Many thanks to Paper Boy Nick for the vile filth he posted. I’ll see you again next series.
