June 18-20, 1968
As the St. Louis Cardinals closed out a somewhat disappointing 2010 season against the Colorado Rockies, a group of unsuspecting hurlers found themselves chasing a bit of fascinating Cardinals history. Jake Westbrook, Kyle Lohse and Jeff Suppan held the Rockies scoreless over the last three games, until Dexter Fowler led off the 8th inning with a solo home run off Fernando Salas, ending the consecutive scoreless inning streak at 30 1/3. One pitch away from three consecutive shutouts against the same team. Has this ever happened before in Cardinals history ?
