In the 7th inning, with the Phillies down two runs to the hometown Cardinals, Ryan Howard realized he needed to do something to get into scoring position. So he decided to try and swipe ...
Howard Heads Home to Face Cards
the700level.com 6/13/2008 — We're not sure who the Phils are facing tonight. ESPN says former Phillie Kyle Lohse is taking the mound while MLB.com says it's Todd Wellemeyer. We think it will be Lohse who has looked sharp as of late and won his last four outings.
The Phils run out Kyle Kendrick tonight as Ryan Howard returns to his old stomping grounds of St. Louis. Maybe some home cooking can get Howard back on track ...

If the ...
