Cards get their first hit, but Game 3 still scoreless after 2 innings

Well, there goes the no-hitter.

Hey, it’s early and nobody’s doing much. We gotta write about something.

With one out in the bottom of the second, Yadier Molina stroked a clean single, the Cardinals’ first hit against Matt Cain in Game 3. But David Freese lifted an easy fly to right, Brandon Crawford a routine pop to shortstop.

With the exception of Carlos Beltrán exiting Game 3 with a knee injury, there just hasn’t been much to write about yet.

That will change, though. It always does.
