Weaver's Redemption
Jeff Weaver just completed his 10th shutout inning of the post season. I am not a big Weaver fan, but he's certainly making the Cardinals look very smart for taking a flyer on him after he failed with the Angles. La Russa didn't bring him out for the sixth against San Diego. We'll see if he does the same here. Jeff's only thrown 71 pitches.
...AAAAAAND he gives up the 2-run HR to Beltran. Looks like LaRussa left him in too long. But still, it was a fine start from Weaver, and two runs from your starter over 5 2/3rds is pretty good.
