Darryl Kile allowed seven runs on ten hits in 6 2/3 innings of work to take the loss as the St. Louis Cardinals were hammered by Houston on Sunday 9-2. The Astros take two out of three in this series and win the National League Central as a result. The Cardinals will have to settle for the wildcard in the National League and they will open up with the Arizona Diamondbacks in the first-round. Game #1 is tommorrow in Phoenix.
