Torre's first game in St. Louis since being fired as Cardinals manager a decade ago was far from a happy homecoming. The Cardinals began their second straight high-profile interleague series with a strong start from Jason Marquis and a big game from Albert Pujols in an 8-1 victory over the stumbling Yankees on Friday night. Torre, who had been hoping a 12-3 victory at Milwaukee on Wednesday would jump-start his team, held a closed-door meeting after the Yankees lost for the eighth time in 10 games on a season-high 12-game trip. He wouldn't discuss the subject matter with the media. ``That's nobody's business,'' Torre said. ``I'm just not very happy. It was an ugly game. We didn't play hard enough, we didn't do anything to help ourselves win. ``It was an embarrassing game.'' |
