Byline: Kevin Sherrington

ST. LOUIS _ On what would be its last day as home of the Cardinals, Busch Stadium, soon to go out with a bang, hardly provided a whimper of protest.

No more theatrics. Even the game's greatest hitter, Albert Pujols, purveyor of the biggest mood swing since Prozac, was all out of drama Wednesday.

No histrionics worked against the Astros this time.

No history, either.

"We had everything scripted out exactly like we wanted to Monday," Astros manager Phil Garner said, "and we didn't get it done.

"But this is just fine with me."
