Woodford gets the save for Cards — and then a trip down the hall to minor-league clubhouse

JUPITER, Fla.• Righthander Jake Woodford got the save in Monday’s 3-2 Cardinals exhibition win over Washington and then he got a trip down the hall at the Cardinals' spring-training facility.

Woodford, who has caught the eyes of president of baseball operations John Mozeliak, manager Mike Shildt and the coaching staff, was among six players sent to the minor leagues after the game. He worked two scoreless innings Monday at Roger Dean Stadium and permitted two runs in six innings for the spring.
