St. Louis Cardinals Baseball Blog » Mike Parisi http://www.cardinalshomeplate.com A blog about St. Louis Cardinals Baseball Mon, 06 Feb 2012 21:30:48 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 Cards fall to the Tigers 3-2 in ten innings http://www.cardinalshomeplate.com/cards-fall-to-the-tigers-3-2-in-ten-innings/ http://www.cardinalshomeplate.com/cards-fall-to-the-tigers-3-2-in-ten-innings/#comments Thu, 26 Jun 2008 20:45:14 +0000 HotStoveCardinals http://www.cardinalshomeplate.com/cards-fall-to-the-tigers-3-2-in-ten-innings/ The St. Louis Cardinals lost a very dissapointing game on Thursday afternoon to the Detroit Tigers.  The Tigers tied up the game in the bottom of the ninth inning and then scored the winning run on a bases loaded walk to get the 3-2 victory.

Mike Parisi gave up one hit and three walks in the 10th inning as he took the loss for the Cardinals.  Pariso just didn’t get the job done and wasn’t able to get the game into the 11th inning like he was expected to do.  Gary Sheffield took Ryan Franklin deep for a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to tie the game and send it in to extra innings.

Cardinals starting pitcher Todd Wellemeyer lasted five innings.  Wellemeyer gave up four hits in the game to get the no decision.  Ron Villone did give up one run as he pitched after Wellemyer was taken out of the game.  Jason Isringhausen did a good job as he threw 2 1/3 innings of scoreless baseball. Hopefully Izzy keeps on throwing the ball good.

The loss really purt a damper on the day that Albert Pujols returned to go 4-4 with one rbi.  Pujols and a great day at the plate in his first game since coming of the disabled list.  Brendan Ryan scored the Cardinals first run in the seventh inning as he scored on a Aaron Miles double and an error by the Tigers second basemen who made a bad throw to third base.

Now the Cardinals will have a three game series against the Kansas City Royals.  The Royals and Cardinals usually play some good games so who knows what will happen this weekend.

Ryan Franklin gave up a two run home run to Elijah Dukes in the bottom of the 10th inning.  Franklin took the loss and is now 2-2 on the season.  Franklin simply didn’t get his job done.  Mike Parisi the Cardinals starting pitcher pitched terrible as he only lasted four innings after giving up ten hits and eight runs.

Mark Worrell, Kyle McClellan, Ron Villone, and Randy Flores all pitched alteast one inning after Parisi left the game and before Franklin blew the game.  All four of those relief pitchers did a great job of not giving up any more runs to the Nationals.

Worrell actually led the Cardinals at the plate with three rbi as he hit a three run home run in the sixth inning.  Troy Glaus and Joe Mather both hit solo home runs.  Mather’s home run was what put the Cardinals ahead by one in the top of the tenth inning.  Parisi had two rbi while Skip Schumaker and Aaron Miles finished with one rbi each.

Tough way to split a double header.  Hopefully the Cardinals will get a decent nights of sleep so they can come out and play good against the Houston Astros on Friday.

Kyle Lohse took the loss for the Cardinals.  Lohse gave up eight hits and seven hits in only four innings of action.  Lohse now has a 4.87 era on the season.  Loshe got off to a bad start as he gave up four quick runs to the Rockies in the first inning alone.

Russ Springer pitched one inning of scoreless relief before Mike Parisi pitched three inning and gave up five hits and two runs.

Ryan Ludwick hit his sixth and seventh home runs of the season in the game in the losing effort.  Ludwick finished the game with two rbi while Yadier Molina had one rbi with a rbi single in the sixth inning.
