With one St. Louis Cardinals game in the books, it looks like the club is shifting in the right direction.
It may be just one game, but it was certainly nice to see the St. Louis Cardinals win 11-6 Thursday in the season opener against the Cincinnati Reds. It may have looked like a hit parade against Reds starter Luis Castillo, but it was more of an effort by the team to do what they could to get on base and keep moving.
