News, Notes and Historical Information on the St. Louis Cardinals
[powered by WordPress.]
A great outing by starter Braden Looper was wasted last night as closer Jason Isringhausen continued to struggle early in the year, blowing a save opportunity and coming up with a 3-2 loss to the Houston Astros last night.
Looper was phenomenal, allowing no runs, 2 hits, and only 1 walk over 7 innings. Unfortunately, Isringhausen came undone in the 9th, giving up 3 runs to allow the Astros to steal game 1 of the series in St. Louis. No Cardinal hitters were able to connect on multiple hits, and Adam Kennedy was the only hitter credited with an RBI.
