Cards got audio.

Nine-pitch first for Johan.

Baxter in CF? yikes.

Wow, I know I don't listen to opposing broadcasts much so this is probably old news for many, but the Cardinals radio guys..omg. They randomly made up stats for Duda. I think they may have given the total stats for all Mets RFers last year. There was a racoon or something in the stands. They described 2 of the 5 pitches to Mike Baxter. Said Santana had a rough season coming back from shoulder surgery last season. Were astute enough to know that Beltran used to be Santana's teammate "once upon a time" Called "VAl..entino Pas...cucci" a "young" Steve Balboni. Hoped he'd have a longer career than Steve.

That's a bad assignment they're turning in there. Unlike Johan, who is pitching a gem against these Cardinals.

Yankees fans don't realize how good they have it on the radio. heh.

Changeup gets Freese. Beltran struck out too. meanwhile on twitter: "@ryanfingawesome: A St. Louis fan literally brought a squirrel to this game and its running in the stands on the 3rd base side."

55 pitches, 4 Ks, no walks or runs through 5 for Santana. (okay, one of those Ks was Westbrook)

Ceetar Mar 21 2012 12:23 PM Re: XIGT, 3/21, Mets vs. Cardinals

two singles (one by Beltran) leading off the 6th, Santana Ks Holliday swinging.

Ceetar Mar 21 2012 12:25 PM Re: XIGT, 3/21, Mets vs. Cardinals

Freese down swinging wildly (loses the bat, again)

Ceetar Mar 21 2012 12:26 PM Re: XIGT, 3/21, Mets vs. Cardinals

Cards score a single up the middle by Berkman though, but Beltran gets caught in a run down trying to advance to third.

Valdespin ties it with a home run in the top of the 9th.

Edgy MD Mar 21 2012 01:52 PM Re: XIGT, 3/21, Mets vs. Cardinals

And Batista and Olson combine to cough it up in the bottom.

Edgy MD Mar 21 2012 02:01 PM Re: XIGT, 3/21, Mets vs. Cardinals

Six innings. Six hits. One run. No walks. Six strikeouts. And not too big a big shot to ride the bus home.
