Ewttexas · September 24th, 2008, 07:41 PM

Win #82. Cards have a winning season!!!! Waiwright with the win and Franklin with his 2nd save in 2 days.
Back with the recap shortly.

Ewttexas · September 24th, 2008, 08:05 PM

The all substitute lineup had 8 hits- all singles. Schu and kennedy each had 2 and Miles, Phelps, Izturis and Johnson had 1 apiece. Somehow they put them together for 4 runs.
Once again, Wainwright wasn't at his best. He pitched in and out of trouble but still made it through 6 innings for a quality start. He went 6 innings giving up 2 runs on 7 hits with 5 BBs and 2 Ks. He ends up 11-3 with a 3.20 ERA. Villone got his 15th hold by getting a K on Dunn. Springer finished the 7th getting 2 out with a K. His ERA is 2.37. Motte was great again. He got his 3rd hold. He supposedly threw a pitch at 101 MPH. He pitched a perfect 8th with 2 Ks . He has an ERA of 1.00. Franklin got his 17th save. He went 1 inning giving up 1 hit. His ERA is 3.39.
The Cards are 82-76. Those in the know predicted 10 less wins. They forgot to tell the team. If nothing else, the Cards can be proud of putting together a winning season against all odds given the injuries and lack of front office help. TLR should still be Manager Of THe Year and Albert should be the MVP.
That's it for tonight. Tomorrow night, it's Pineiro Vs Davis and an all RH lineup.
See ya later.
