Cardinals Show Difference Between Best and Worst
The Saint Louis Cardinals came into a weekend series at Citizens Bank Park with the best record in the National League. The Phillies entered the series with the worst record in all of Major League Baseball. The result was a fairly predictable 12-4 Cards shelling of the hosts.
The Phils started Phillippe Aumont on the mound, his first-ever start in the Majors. The 26-year old native of Canada had earned the opportunity by putting together a solid season with AAA Lehigh Valley, going 3-4 with a 2.35 ERA in 14 games. He had allowed just 49 hits in 65 innings.
