    I think that is going to hurt us being the pitching team that scratches out runs on offense. Let's hope Andy can fight through the calls.

    well like we knew, it's not gonna be easy. lamb must run about as fast as mabry to be out so easily.

    Luna made a great play... hopefully that's out of his system (and he reverts to the wild thrower he was in game 3).

    Ensberg needs to swing hard, regardless... eventually, he'll connect big-time.

    Andy can live on that high outside corner, if the ump keeps giving it to him.

    Too bad he already struck out ... he didn't foul that one ... It's ok though ... We need to fight through an occasional call.

    Andy had him... he just needed to bounce that throw... cricket-style.

    Time to focus now.

    I gotta give credit... the Cards have a very solid approach at the plate to Pettite tonight. Attack early, and foul off everything you can't handle when you've got 2 strikes (even if they're out of the zone).

    Hopefully Brad and him can pick up on that and get some quick first-pitch outs (like he did against Pujols and Sanders).
