A Start and a Win

Congratulations to Shawn Estes. He makes his first start in two season and picks up his first win since 2005. He didn't pitch great, but he didn't break either. In 5 1/3 innings he allowed seven hits but only three runs, two earned. That was enough as San Diego found some offense. Greene hit his third home run of the month after none in April. The resulting three RBI tied the game, and Gerut doubled in the go-ahead tally in the same inning. The pen allowed just one hit over 3 1/3 innings to secure the victory.

The Cardinals just went to extra innings with the Pirates, so a St. Louis win means a tie with the Cubs for first place in the NL Central.

Update: The Pirates have scored four runs in the top of the tenth (still batting), so the Cubs may stay in first place.

Update: Pirates win 8-4.
