First big-league save tonight for {{bbref|p/perezch|Chris Perez}}!
This was a big one for the Cards, and it was even of the multiple inning variety (1 2/3)!
Perez bailed out the bullpen after a marvelous seven inning start by {{bbref|p/pineijo|Joel Pineiro}}. My boy {{bbref|t/thompbr|Brad Thompson}} was ineffective in one-third of an inning, proving I should never try to prop up anyone in this bullpen (oops, sorry Chris).
Here’s hoping Tony has turned the page on {{bbref|i/isrinja|Jason Isringhausen}} and {{bbref|f/frankry|Ryan Franklin}}. I’m hoping his kid is going to prove that he deserved a shot a long time ago.
