Like I said, 2 doubles in a row. Time to get him out.

Ewttexas · 06-29-2008, 04:47 PM

I guess that I don't get it. Izzt threw 38 pitches. We'll have to see how he feels tomorrow. Now McClellan is in after throwing yesterday. What is the point of havinf g Mulder in the pen if you're not going to use him? Let's save him for the Mutts? HUH!.

Kyle gets the last out of the 7th. 6 out to go. We have burned out the whole BP.

Ewttexas · 06-29-2008, 05:10 PM

Now they bring in Franklin with 1 out in the 8th. This has disaster written all over it if not for today, then for the Mutt series. Only Villone, Mulder and Miles are left.

Ewttexas · 06-29-2008, 05:15 PM

We survived the 8th with only 1 run scoring. Could we tack on a couple of insurance runs? We may need them.

Ewttexas · 06-29-2008, 05:23 PM

And now, Kennedy is thrown out at 2nd to end the top of the 9th. Hold on to your hats, this may get bumpy.

CaRDS WIN IT 9-6. They take the series but I'm still concerned about the BP for the Mutt series.
Back with the recap in a few minutes.

Good to see the bats wake up in time for the Mets and Cubs....successful road trip heading to the homestand....

Sorry for being a sceptic but the use of the BP really bothered me. It looks like TLR put all of his eggs in this basket and it did work out short term.
The Cards had 14 hits and they made most of them count. Albert had 2 with his 17th HR. LaRue has to be given 4 stars. He had a triple and HR. The good news is that Ank had 2 with a double and Duncan had 2 singles. Schu had 2 with a double and Miles had 2 singles. Ludwick and Ryan each had a single. Kennedy was the only one without a hit.
Loop got his pitch count up early. He only lasted 3 1/3 innings giving up 3 runs (2 earned) on 6 hits with 4 BBs and 2 Ks. Perez got the win. He's 2-0. He went 1 1/3 innings giving up 1 run on 2 hits with 1 BB and 1 K. Springer saved the day again by striking out the only batter he faced. Izzy went 1 2/3 innings giving up 1 run on 2 hits with 1 BB and 4 Ks. Kyle got his 17th hold. He went 2/3 of an inning giving up 1 run on 2 hits. Franklin got his 11th save. He went 1 2/3 innings giving up 1 hit with 2 Ks.
Some other good news is that Milw lost so we have a game lead in the loss column. Other than that, Houston and Cic won while Pitts lost. The Cubs play tonight.
Some good news on the Minor League front as well. Be sure to check in with Coop for those results.
Tomorrow night, at home, it's Lohse Vs. Maine.
See ya later.

Franklin has been solid, and LaRue keeps looking better with more playing time. Good win.
