high for ball one to junior lake. kevin gregg will get the bottom of the night. craig, holliday, freese. will not be easy, but this game is not easy. curve outside. j.d.: a little insurance would be good. ooking for some traffic. len: how about a double? .d.: that works too. en: third time he's been on. j.d.: walk, shmalk. astball down and in. if the cardinals were protecting a lead, that may be closer to the line. fouled back to make it 0-2. len: blake parker, the cubs pitcher of record. remember rosenthal for the cardinals after giving up the hree runs. so rizzo basically gave himself up. looked like in that swing down and out in the count and wanted to get licked and he did. i'm guessing. but -- j.d.: well, regardless of his intention, for him to get that man over, at least. so he'll get high-five's from the visiting dugout. well, you got the right guy up there. boy, castillo, the at-bats he has been having, got to like his chances. a little jelly-legged on that breaking ball. fortunately for him, it was not called a strike. good day's work. when your team has five and u scored two and driven in two, that's a good day. freeman, the lefty, getting ready. len: and he just got hit, and pretty high. i thought he got hit high last night, too. j.d.: he did. boy, this is scary. whenever it's a fastball. very similar to last night. 95 miles an hour. trying to crowd him. way up and in. take his catcher's mask to the plate. first and third. j.d.: cardinals middle infielders that were there said back up a step. len: that's into right. lake will score. castillo will move to third. 6-4. j.d.: first hit of the night for nate schierholtz. hit deep into right field but this is his first knock and it's a big one. len: always like to have a little insurance for the closer. right now, two-run lead. golden opportunity to make it t least three. castro takes a breaking ball or a strike. two out of four tonight. len: two down. castro strikes out and it will be up to ransom. back with you tomorrow. we'll have it here for you on wgn. 1:00 for the leadoff man. first pitch 15 minutes after that. edwin jackson, former cardinal. he will face a current cardinal, which makes sense. joe kelly. by definition, right?
