And Then Marquis Pitches A Shutout...

Whoops.

The unpredictability of sports strikes again. Only two days after I begged LaRussa to spare the Cardinals and take Jason Marquis out of the lineup, he pitches a complete game shutout.

I never gave up on him. And this is one reason I like baseball better than football. Tony LaRussa has been more concerned with Marquis' personal performance over what may seem better for the team right away. Marquis wasn't just dumped on the side of the road because he had a losing streak. He was encouraged and given many chances to get his groove back, and apparrently it's finally working. The same is true for Ray King and Julian Tavarez, who are both looking better as well. Yay baseball for the admirable morality.
