This was the first of four series to be played against the rivals this season and it was refreshing to watch most of the series on television this past weekend. I say most as it was the Kentucky Derby this past weekend so coverage was split accordingly. St. Louis took two out of three and Izzy redeemed himself in game 3 for his blown save during game 1 which led to Skip Schumaker's walk-off home run in extra innings to win the game.
