STLtoday - Sports - CardinalsTony La Russa said it would be "fun" to promote outfielder Rick Ankiel and give him a two-week whirl in the majors while center fielder Jim Edmonds is on the disabled list. But fun isn't always practical.
Ankiel had two hits, including a double, to raise his average to .286 in Memphis' loss Monday, and he has 19 home runs for the Class AAA affiliate.
