The St. Louis Cardinals (65-37) sit atop the National League Central standings. Their .637 winning percentage is the highest in the majors. The Colorado Rockies (43-57) are in the NL West cellar. Their .430 winning percentage is the fourth-worst in the NL. Yet these two clubs played an exciting back-and-forth contest last night because it's baseball. They play the second of their four-game series at Busch Stadium this evening.
