Cardinals bring back Leone for a one-night engagement, but first there's a game

NEW YORK — We interrupt you're regularly scheduled program to bring you news of the Cardinals promoting reliever Dominic Leone for Friday evening's game at City Field against the the New York Mets. Leone will be the Cardinals' 26th man for the game -- an allowance the Cardinals and Mets have both been afforded because they must complete Thursday's game before starting Friday's game.

When last we saw the Local Nine, they had scored two runs in the top of the ninth inning and turned the Mets' eagerness to play in the rain into a 4-4 game and a mess for the infield.
