Glaus Gets Two More Bases

Troy Glaus's power took a dive this April. Coming into this season, Glaus had career totals of 277 homers and 241 doubles. He only played two season in which he collected more doubles than homers. In 2008, however, he started with eleven doubles and no homers. He was hitting the ball hard, just not out of the park. That changed today as he picked up his first tater of the season, a two-run shot to cap a four run Cardinals fifth inning. This is similar to what happened to David Ortiz last year, where he lost nineteen homer but picked up twenty three doubles.

The Cardinals defeated the Astros 5-1 as Kyle Lohse continues to be one of the best signings of the winter.
