Barrett lifts Cubs to victory over Cards
Three-run shot in first all the runs Marquis would need
Ronny Cedeno also went yard
Quote:
CHICAGO -- Jason Marquis wasn't on the St. Louis Cardinals' roster last October for either the National League Championship Series or the World Series. But on Saturday, he wasn't looking for revenge against his former team. He just wanted a chance to show his new team that his 6.02 ERA last year was a fluke.
Marquis threw seven shutout innings and got some offense -- finally -- as Michael Barrett hit a three-run homer and Ronny Cedeno drove in two runs in the Cubs' 6-0 victory over the Cards.
Marquis is the first to admit he struggled a little last year with his confidence.
