St. Louis Cardinals lose Chris Carpenter
CHRIS CARPENTER might have thrown his final pitch. St. Louis general manager John Mozeliak and manager Mike Matheny announced Tuesday that Carpenter almost certainly won't pitch in 2013 and that his star-crossed career is probably over after a recurrence of a nerve injury that cost him most of last season. Carpenter plans to seek further medical evaluation.
