4-2 Barton-2.JPG While the Cardinals lost yesterday 2-1 on opening night, it was still a special night for two players making their major league debut.  St. Louis native and Hazelwood West grad Kyle McClellan grew up a Cardinals fans and two years never thought he’d pitch again after having ligament replacement surgery and then a second surgery on his elbow.   

Another guy enjoying success on his first night was rookie outfielder Brian Barton. Making his first major league roster after a great spring, he had his mom in St. Louis for a couple days and Barton got a chance to pinch hit in the 7 th inning and got his first major league hit with mom watching.
