Quote of the day

"The great trouble with baseball today is that most of the players are in the game for the money and that's it, not for the love of it, the excitement of it, the thrill of it."

R.A. Watch #3

Rick Ankiel started in RF and batted 2nd in the lineup. Ankiel played his best offensive game of his career blasting two home runs, his first multi-homerun game of his career. His first homerun came in the 1st inning with Aaron Miles on base and his second homerun was a solo shot in the 7th. Ankiel is showing that he can play with the rest of the position players in the majors. Braden Looper came away with the win and Derek Lowe was hit with the loss in the Cardinals 6-1 victory over the Dodgers.
