Albert Pujols and the St. Louis Cardinals will take on the young Cincinnati Reds for a three game set starting tonight at 6:05pm. The Cardinals will throw rookie righthander Mitchell Boggs, who will make his first major league start. He will face the Reds rookie righthander Homer Bailey. Both pitchers have only pitched in one major league game, with Boggs pitching two innings the other night, and giving a run, while Bailey dropped his start on June 5th at Phildelphia 5-0.
Obviously, our man Albert Pujols has yet to face Homer Bailey. Let’s hope tonight for Albert is a reminder of Mr. Bailey’s first name. HOMER HOMER HOMER!
Go Albert! Go Cardinals!
