Astacio pitched ok, but had control trouble all night.In the first, he walked a batter, balked him to second, thena single scored the run, with the batter taking second on thethrow home. Another single made the score 2-0 Cards. Lasorda tried a new line up featuring Butler, Reed, And Piazzabatting third! Darryl and Eric were benched in favor of Snyderand Webster. Piazza homered in the first to make the score 2-1 Cards.The Dodgers tied the game in the second on a two out singleby Offerman. By the fourth inning, Astacio had already made about 80 pitches, butthe score was still 2-2. The Dodger defense made SEVERAL impressiveplays. Piazza looked GREAT behind the plate, gunning down a runnertrying to steal second, throwing a runner out at first whohad strayed a bit from first base, etc. Karros also made a spectacular play, keeping a ball from going intothe outfield. The runner on first was so sure that ball was goingthrough, he just kept running past second. Karros got up and threwto third and EASILY got the runner at third. My heart sank in the 7th when Gross got up to warm up in the bullpen. Astacio was lifted for a pinch hitter, and when Gross entered the gamewith the score still 2-2, Dodger fans just KNEW it was over. Gross was relieving because he stunk on Tuesday, pitching just 2 1/3innings, forcing Lasorda to use much of his bullpen. The 15 inninggame had the same effect the next night...so only Gross was freshgiven his light work out Tuesday. Gross lived up to his name. He walked the first batter, gave up a hitto the second, and walked the bases loaded. After a grounder resultedin a force at home, Zeile lifted a scoring fly ball to make it3-2 Cards. Gross paid little attention to the runners, and the nextthing you knew, the Cards had stolen a fourth run. The runner onfirst was eventually tagged out in the run down, but the 4th run hadscored long before that. Meanwhile, the Dodgers mounted little offense after the second inning.Lee Smith pitched the ninth. He had little trouble getting Karrosand Wallach (does anyone have trouble with Wallach these days?).Cory Snyder collected his first hit as a Dodger, a single, butthat was all the offense the Dodgers could mount. Smith got histhird straight save against the Dodgers and all I got was myfree Dodger cap and a good look at Piazza. If Piazza keeps thisup all year, he will be a strong candidate for rookie of the yearhonors. Though its really early, Karros is already showing signsof a sophomore jinx year. The final score...Cardinals 4 runs on 7 hits.Dodgers 2 runs on 7 hits. Dodger
