May 10th, 2008: St. Louis Cardinals 5 at Milwaukee Brewers 3 F -- The St. Louis Cardinals made sure they weren't the only ones with questions in the back end of their bullpen. Ryan Ludwick delivered a clutch two-run single in the ninth against Milwaukee closer Eric Gagne, breaking a tie and sending the Cardinals to a 5-3 win Saturday. The victory came one night after Cards closer Jason Isringhausen blew his fifth save, a mark tied with Gagne atop the National League leaderboard. "I'm never nervous in that situation, I love that situation," said Ludwick, who fell behind Gagne with the bases loaded and two outs. "I've been blessed with that opportunity a lot since I've been here. I've been fortunate to come through a lot of the situations. I feel like that's what baseball's all about." Ludwick, who now has 23 RBIs in just 97 at-bats, snapped a streak of 13 consecutive scoreless innings by Brewers relievers.
