We're The Cardinals, And You're Not
I don't really have much to say about this game. Jimmy and Albert went back-to-back in the first inning. Matty did fine. Yadi hit clean up?!? Eh, it worked. Edmonds did ground into a double play for the first time this season. Is that exciting? I guess not very. Lots of hits, some walks (10 left on, which annoys somewhat), only Edmonds had more than one RBI, so lots of people got in on the fun. The Cardinals did not issue a single walk. I like that a lot. So now we know. When you pitching coach is sucker punched by an opposing coach, just go out and kick their butts two nights in a row. Thank you, Gerald Perry.
It was very fitting that Morris was the pitcher on the night La Russa passed Anderson. Tony would appreciate the win no matter who was on the mound, but he's had Matty his whole career.
