"Failed pitcher Rick Ankiel hit a three-run homer to cap his debut as a major league outfielder, and Joel Piñeiro worked seven scoreless innings in the Cardinals’ 5-0 victory over the San Diego Padres last night in St. Louis."

The Padres are all pitching an no hitting. According to mlb.com, they rank 30th in team batting average at .243, and 27th in runs scored.
The Cardinals-Padres game the other night wasn’t on account of Pineiro, it was on account of the Padres.
Even though I do agree with the title of this thread…
Pineiro’s 1st start in the NL

Glad to see Ankiel got called up. Good for him.
just so everyone knows, sf’s mom is one savvy customer, though she’s probably lost a few clicks off the heater. i think she’d be a fine back of the rotation pickup for your small-market franchise.
Can she be had for Farnsworth and a PTBNL?
