Cardinals cleanup hitter Matt Holliday was removed after two innings, complaining of tightness in his left quadriceps, according to an ESPN.com report. The Cardinals were minus all three starting outfielders after Lance Berkman was taken out as a precaution with discomfort in his right wrist in the sixth shortly after making a diving catch in right against the Astros on Wednesday night. Pete Kozma, called up earlier in the day after Nick Punto was placed on the 15-day disabled list, hit an RBI double in his first career at-bat to put the Cardinals up 5-0. St. Louis won 5-1 as Kyle Lohse pitched eight dominant innings.
