Brad Thompson pitched well for the Cardinals conceding just a single run in 7 innings to the visiting Royals. Chris Duncan continues to show signs of recovery from a knee infection as he belted a 2-run homer in the 2nd. The Cards added 3 more runs in the 3rd with singles from Thompson, Taguchi, Spiezio and Duncan with a Pujols sac-fly mixed in. The pitching carried them the rest of the way as the Cards beat the Royals 5-1 in their shortest game of the season, clocking in at just 2 hours 10 minutes.
