Allen Craig had a nice night at the plate in a loss to the Pirates on Friday, going 2-for-4 with a homer, double, two runs scored and three RBI. Craig's three-run bomb off Kevin Correia in the third inning put the Cardinals on top 5-2. Sadly, that was the last time they would score in the game, while the Pirates would tack on 12 more runs. Craig is enjoying a terrific season in the middle of the Cardinals lineup, hitting .314 with 10 homers and 37 RBI in just 140 at-bats.
