Cardinals Mow Down Rangers, 9-3
Behind a solid performance from right fielder Byron Browne, the St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Texas Rangers, 9-3. Browne was 3 for 4 with 2 doubles. He scored 3 times for the Cardinals. Johnny Welch was the winner. He's now 6-5. The loser was 26-year old left-handed pitcher Ken Chase. St. Louis, at 24-43, holds down last place in the National League.

Mike Lowell had a big 2-run double for the Cardinals in the bottom of the third inning. With St. Louis leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a curveball from 26-year old left-handed pitcher Ken Chase and swatted a double to right-center. It was his 7th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Cardinals ahead, 3-0.

"I'm just out there trying to have as much fun as I can while I'm playing," Lowell told the St. Louis News.
