Weekend

Well that actually wasn't TOO bad of a weekend, even though the Cards lost 2 out of 3. The worst part of it was them losing a 4-0 lead in the first game. But at least they won a game against the hottest team in baseball.
Next up is the Royals. Not sure what to expect from this series. The Royals have played decent ball lately and clobbered the Phillies yesterday. But with 6 out of the next 9 games against the Royals, it would be nice to see the Cards win at least 4 out of those 6...if not more.
I've said it before but it's really nice to see the bats have come alive. Come Wed it will be a month since the Cardinals were last shut out and only twice during that same span have they been held to only one run. Eckstein is above .300 which is crazy to me. I know he's been doing pretty well lately but had no idea it was that hot. But really he had one bad month (April). May he hit .338 and .419 in July. Keep it up lil' buddy.
