****ing shit.
Freaking Cards went crazy again. Nice PBP Witlon, wish I could'v been here with you.
You know, no matter how pissed I am that the O didn't come through tonight, I'm so much more impressed with how Maholm settled down after the HR in the first.
118 pitches was a tad much, but he certainly proved he could get it done.
Another gameday on Wednesday afternoon.
Maholm did have a nice game and that is huge for a team looking for their young rotation to come up big. Good point man.
