Schwarber Socks Cardinals in 5-4 Astros Win
|
The Houston Astros defeated the St. Louis Cardinals, 5-4, in part because of designated hitter Kyle Schwarber. Schwarber was 2 for 2 with 2 home runs and 2 walks for the Astros. CC Sabathia, who finished 2nd in the AL in innings pitched with 234.2 in 2010, was the winning pitcher. Over 6.1 innings, he allowed 3 runs on 8 hits, with 2 walks and 5 strikeouts. The last-place Cardinals have dropped 7 straight games.
Shin-Soo Choo chipped in a run-scoring single for Houston in the bottom of the fourth. For the game, the right fielder had 2 hits in 3 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 RBI.
"No one likes losing," said St. Louis manager AU Cards. "But we'll turn this thing around."
