Congratulations to the Cardinals. They should be a shoe-in for the NL Central title this year. The Astros are doing everything they can to give the season away.
They are losing to the Pirates 12-5 right now. In the 6th inning. Tim Purpura: Please send Preston Wilson on a raft in the Ship Channel. He can't figure out how to get a double on a ball hit off the wall 2 feet from the right field foul pole. |

Albert goes 3-run big fly to go up 3-1! How do you walk JRod with 2 outs and Albert up next??

St Louis continues to outperform their pythag. Fortunately for them, Cincinatti is also really outperforming theirs.
Look for St Louis to open a bigger lead and for Houston to fall out of serious contention by the end of July. That overrated Acesishigh blowing the pitching staff will not continue. |

Better question, how does Phil Garner pinch hit for Oswalt after 6 dominating innings and only 91 pitches?

He had to get out of jams in the 1st, 4th and 5th and that could be why Garner yanked him. Also- you have to love the more hits than innings pitched trend that he's showing this year. Oswalt is one of those pitchers that can continuously win 20 games with a combination of luck and never being very dominant. |

0 runs, 5 Ks and striking out Pujols on 3 pitches with two runners on would suggest otherwise...
