Cardinals bats awake in Florida

June 11, 2009 By admin

The Cardinals bats broke out of their slump last night beating the Florida Marlins 13-4.  Brendan Ryan had four hits, and Colby Rasmus hit a three-run homer. Adam Wainwright picked up the win.  Even with that five game losing streak, the Cardinals pull back to a game and a half from Milwaukee after Wednesday’s win.

Adam Wainwright allowed baserunners, but never too much damaged.  He pitched seven innings giving up 11 hits and three walks while allowing four runs, but only one at a time.

Rasmus got the Cards going right away with his 7th homer of the season.  His three run shot off Marlins starter Chris Volstad came with one out.  The Cards added another run in the second to answer the Marlins’ first run to go up 4-1. 

It was still a close game, 6-4 heading into the 8th inning.  After Rick Ankiel doubled (he also homered in the 9th) and Yadier Molina walked, Tyler Greene bunted for a single with Ankiel scoring and Molina going to third on a throwing error by relief pitcher Cristhian Martinez.  The Cardinals then scored a couple of more runs on force plays and added four in the inning.  The Cardinals put the finishing touches on their win with three more in the 9th.
