Game 127: Suppan at Vogelsong

The Cards are coming off losing two of three in Cincinnati. Last night they were shut down by the mighty Aaron Harang.

A strong game by Vogelsong would be a huge lift for the team and the fans.

The Cardinals do not respect the Pirates. As Julian Tavarez put it:

"The Pittsburgh Pirates are 35 games out; they're not going anywhere," Tavarez said. "If it's 2-2 in the eighth and we're playing San Francisco or San Diego for the wild-card, that's different. It's the Pittsburgh Pirates."

What he's trying to say, I think, is that these Cardinals-Pirates games are exhibitions characterized by meaningless and one-sided baseball.

Thanks for the bulletin board material. Not that we'll need it, but it will make any victories we can manage that much sweeter.
