    St. Louis and San Francisco split their six meetings (3-3) last season, although the Cardinals won three of the last four.

    The Giants are just 2-4 despite actually outscoring their opponents by eight runs (28 to 20) so far this season.

    The Cardinals have just eight extra-base hits so far this season. Every other team in the majors has at least 10.

    Jake Westbrook walked five batters in just 4.1 innings of work in his first start of the season. That's a far cry from last season, when he averaged 3.0 walks per 9.0 IP.

    Albert Pujols is off to a slow start at the plate, batting just .182 with one home run and three RBI. Prior to this season, Pujols was a .328 career hitter in the months of March/April.

    Jonathan Sanchez went 3-2 with a 2.55 ERA and .224 opponent batting average versus N.L. Central clubs last season.

    Cardinals really shook up their lineup! My guess is due to the 12 inning game yesterday and the afternoon game tomorrow.

    I look for them to get Holiday back soon. Dont know if it will be tomorrow or not.
