Result:
LOSS

Chris Carpenter and the St. Louis Cardinals off a one-run loss. That's a gift. You see, St. Louis almost never loses with Carpenter on the mound and they almost never lose coming off a close loss. Carpenter comes in with a 2.63 ERA (1.32 at home). St. Louis is 35012 after a loss by 2 runs or less over the past two seasons and 33-11 after allowing 8+ runs over the past three seasons. The Cards have won 15 of the lat 20 in this series here at home. Can the Reds keep up their winning streak here? Consider that in games invloving two good teams (54%+ on the season), teams off 5+ consecutive wins are just 20-45 since 1997. Like the Cards to bounce back here.
