Earning 1/2 WOBs on losing efforts.

John Lackey began the suspended game on Friday that was finished today. His 7 innings allowing just 2 runs would normally be enough to win. But the Cardinals bullpen faltered when the game was resumed and the Reds won 4-2.

Greg Garcia collected a pair of hits including a homer in the Cardinals 4-2 loss to the Reds.

Brett Gardner hit a combined 3 homers in the double header between the Yankees and Blue Jays. He reached base 5 times altogether, driving in a combined 7 runs. The Yankees dropped both games, 9-5 and 10-7.
