Went 2 Cardinals Game, Wallet Still There
I watched the Cardinals beat the Padres last night 4-3. My wallet, somehow, decided to stay at the stadium. If anyone found it please drop me a line: abradley@acton.org. Please, thanks!
ST. LOUIS (AP) -- Jake Peavy hopes he gave up four homers in a game for the last time. His manager is sure of it.Posted by anthony at July 18, 2008 12:06 AM | TrackBackTroy Glaus homered twice and Rick Ankiel and Joe Mather added solo shots of their own to help the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Padres 4-3 Thursday night.
Cards Four-Homer Facts
• The Cardinals scored all four of their runs on solo homers.
• The only other time in the last 50 years that four solo homers accounted for all of St. Louis' runs was a 7-4 loss to the Astros on April 14, 2001.
• The starting pitcher that night for the Cards was Rick Ankiel, who happened to leave the yard Thursday for the Cards.
-- ESPN Research
"I'm going to go on the record and say that'll never happen again in Jake's career," Padres manager Bud Black said. "Normally, I tell my pitchers solos don't beat you, but tonight they did."
The Cardinals never even had a runner in scoring position.
We REALLY needed that win tonight. I hate that it may have been costly for you, however.

Posted by: Sean at July 18, 2008 12:01 PMDid I read that right, Rick Ankiel was our starting pitcher? Have we become that desperate for pitchers? I think we've all heard that Ankiel holds the record for wild pitches, which he set whilst a Cards rookie...
Glad you made it to a Cards game Anthony.
Never mind, it was Lohse.
