Cardinals first baseman Albert Pujols left the team's loss to the Phillies on Saturday a bit early after aggravating some nagging left ankle discomfort. However, he fully expects to play in Game 2 on Sunday night. "His heel was barking," manager Tony La Russa said. "There was no reason at that point. We keep scoring and his [spot] comes up. I wish it wouldn't have, but his heel was barking, and he didn't want to run the bases in the ninth. He'll play tomorrow."
