Bucos Sweep Redbirds

Manager Bike Mike had high hopes for his 2004 Cardinal squad, but they are being roughed up in early going as the 2013 Pittsburgh Pirates swept the Redbirds, putting themselves in good early standing at 5 and 1.

All three games were close, but the Pirates got the hits when they needed them more so than St. Louis. The first two games ended up with 2-1 and 3-1 finales, both Cardinal runs scoring in the ninth innings.

Game 3 was a wild, back-and-forth affair that feature 2 home runs and 5 RBI by Jim Edmonds. But it was not enough as the Battlin' Bucs battled their way to a 9-8 victory.
