ESPN Monday Night Baseball: Philadelphia at St. Louis

Team Records-Philadelphia (25-14, 12-7 away); St. Louis (22-19, 10-9 home)

Projected Pitchers-Philadelphia: Cliff Lee. St. Louis Jake Westbrook

Weather: 45 degrees with a chance of light rain

Storyline

Philadelphia: Last season, Ryan Howard hit .412, 1 home run, 2 doubles, and 2 RBI in 4 games at Busch Stadium. He's back and is expected to make a big outcome for the Phillies

St. Louis: Tony La Russa is expected to come back into the dugout today. He was out for a good bit of time after a battle with shingles. He is still uncertain but his return predicted return date was Monday. The Cardinals could use their skipper in the dugout tonight.

Prediction-Phillies are two hot to handle. Cliff Lee is a monster, and Ryan Howard is a beast at Busch Stadium. Phillies win it 5-1.
