Atlanta Bats Go Silent in 6-0 Loss
The St. Louis Cardinals downed the Atlanta Braves, 6-0, at Busch Stadium. Stellar pitching by Andrew Miller had a lot to do with it. The left-hander, who finished 3rd in the NL in ERA with 2.60 in 2010, handcuffed his opponent all game. In 5.1 innings, Miller surrendered 3 hits, while striking out 6 and walking 1. He allowed no runs. With the win, St. Louis is 2-3.

St. Louis shortstop Teodósio Escobar contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the first. With two down, he hit a sinker to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 2nd hit of the season and put the Cardinals ahead, 5-0.

"Andrew went out and did what we needed," said St. Louis manager Chris James.
