			<description><![CDATA[ Carlos Zambrano has been wild tonight, was already down 5-3, threw a pitch behind Adam Dunn and then ended up giving up a home run to Dunn.  Next batter was Kearns and he plunked him in the back.  The ump immediately tossed Zambrano.  Bob Brenly is now saying there's not much doubt that Zambrano intentionally threw at Kearns.

			<link>http://evilwontwin.yuku.com/topic/5324/t/Garner-s-Line-ups.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Garner has tinkered with the line-up since Spring Training trying to find the right combination until Berkman comes back. I think he gave up too soon on Luke Scott. Scott struggled early but did hit some balls deep, just missing HRs on a few occasions. Scott also sat down a lot against the several lefties the Astros faced consecutively a few weeks ago and Garner pinch-hit for him last homestand in an RBI situation (which probably didn't help Luke's confidence level). Then Garner waited... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ The AP article on the Cards' triple play that wasn't noted something I hadn't thought about: if the umpire crew hadn't called the teams back out to correct the bad call, then Garner would have had a good case to protest the game, since the decision involved a rule interpretation.  Knowing the outcome of the game now, it's funny to think we might have been better off if the umpires had blown the ruling.  Hypothetically, if that had happened what would have been the result of a successful... ]]></description>
