St. Louis and Cubs Split the Series 2-2.

Randy Wells is pitching Game 2 of the Double Header! The score is 2-1 at the TOP 5th. Sam Fuld had a nice diving catch an earlier inning before.

He JUST struck out Shumacker. The first out was a force at 2nd from Baker to Theriot, who got Adam Wainwright out, BUT he put his hand UP while sliding to distract Ryan Theriot and Theriot threw it and it HIT the palm of Wainwright’s hand, and it deflected. The ump called him out at 2, but not that interference out. It was interference, he knew Theriot was trying to get that double play. But Hill picked off the runer at 2 the runner (Brendan Ryan) anyway, so it doesnt matter.

Damn Ludwick…. he had a 2 run homer.. 4-1 in the TOP 6th.

WOOOO RBI double in the BOT 6th by Milton Bradley! He scores Aramis Ramirez! 4-2!

They put Sean Marshall in the TOP 9th… then?… now… they’re putting Marshall in LF… taking Soriano out? Then putting Heilman in? WHAT is going on here?? This is the weirdest situation ever Lou! YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HEILMAN STRUCK RYAN OUT!!!!! Okay… Lou put Heilman in to strikeout the righty Ryan, but didnt want to take Marshall out of the game. Gotcha. Now he took Heilman out… he put Reed Johnson in LF, and Marshall to pitch. But Tony La Russa is questioning this. SHOOT. La Russa is switching the lefty hitter (Shumaker) and is putting in the righty Jarrett Hoffpauir (they have a Hoffpauir too St. Louis NO relation to Micah). This is weird.  WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! MARSHALL STRUCK OUT HOFFPAUIR!!!!! 2 OUTS!

HOLY CRAP!!! HOLY CRAP!! HOLY CRAP! REEED JOHNSON GOT THE CATCH!!! HE GOT THE CATCH! THAT WAS THE SICKEST CATCH IVE EVER SEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT WAS BETTER THAN ROBBING PRINCE FIELDER OF A GRAND SLAM!!!! HOLY CRUD! THAT WAS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Milton Bradley strikesout. CRUD that was too outside and a little high. GOSH DANG IT Baker strikesout too!!!! That’s too inside! Come on Hoffpauir… 2 outs, we need you.

And of course, Hoffpauir looks at strike 3. SWING THE FRICKEN BAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ALL 3 OF YOU GUYS WATCHED STRIKE 3 GO BY. GO DOWN SWINGING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DONT WATCH IT WHEN YOU NEED 3 RUNS TO WIN A GAME IN A CLUTCH MOMENT. BLAST IT.. THAT IS MY PET PEEVE.

Randy Wells suffered a tough loss. The Cubs offense shouldve backed him up.
