Julio Lugo Leads Off With A Homer For 10th Time

Second baseman Julio Lugo, making his pitch to be the St. Louis Cardinals leadoff hitter against lefthanded starters, led off the game with a full-count home run Thursday afternoon at Busch Stadium. Lugo, who entered the game hitting .163 against lefties for the Cardinals this season, drove Manny Parra’s 3-2 pitch over the left field wall to give the Cardinals a swift 1-0 lead.
