One Day at a Time, Cardinals Putting Up Enviable Record

St Louis CardinalsST. LOUIS (AP) – Mike Matheny has zero interest in scanning the daily statistics that show just how efficiently the St. Louis Cardinals have dealt with the opposition.
Matheny prefers players ignore it, too. He wants them to focus on keeping the franchise with the majors’ best record rolling by grinding out at-bats, grinding out innings, briefly savoring results and moving on.

Even without ace Adam Wainwright, the Cardinals’ 2.61 ERA leads the majors by a wide margin. St. Louis has 30 saves and is 29-7 at home, the best ever in the divisional era that began in 1969 according to STATS. The Cardinals also lead the majors with 22 come-from-behind wins.

The Cardinals open a series against the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday.
