The Cardinals' offense was shut down again, as the Cards dropped their 3rd straight game: The Cards got a leadoff home run from Fernando Vina, but Chan Ho Park and the Dodgers shut down the Cardinals offense for the 2nd straight game. Rick Ankiel had another outstanding outing for the Cardinals, scattering 4 hits over 7 scoreless innings while striking out 9 batters. The Cardinals had a 1-0 lead going into the 8th inning, but the Cards' relievers allowed the Dodgers one run in the 8th and two runs in the 9th.

Lead-off man Fernando Vina sets the table for the Cardinals offense: The Cardinals acquisition of Fernando Vina over the off-season looks like another good move by the Cards front office. Vina has become the catalyst for Cardinals booming offense, by getting on base in front of the Cards heavy hitters. Vina's all-out style of play has also been an impressive and welcome addition to the Cards roster. Fernando was injured most of last season while with the Milwaukee Brewers, but Vina looks like he never missed a beat. With a true lead-off man for the first time in years, the Cardinals should have no problem scoring runs.
