Okay, a run and an error so some semblance of normalcy has returned.

Leake's ERA is down almost a full run tonight from 6.03 to 5.10.

Brendon Ryan and Sugar Shane! And a Rasmus on the mound.

Fun night. Glad I stayed up.

Why is Carpenter not in the lineup today? Oh, he's taking a Leake.
And when it all inevitably goes to [expletive]... we sprung a Leake.
Or when we win... we plugged the Leake.

He passed the test, however, keeping the Angels from scoring despite allowing leadoff hits in both the first and second innings. Opponents had been hitting .314 off Leake with runners on base.
She must read GRB, too.

Leake definitely was "finishing" his pitches better out of the stretch.

I just hope Leake is the missing link in the Cardinals' rotation.
