Westbrook said poor location is a common denominator to starts in which he's struggled.
"Being in the zone with my sinker and controlling counts, that's something I didn't do a good job of," Westbrook said. "It hurts us and it can't happen. it's something I've got to do better."
Cardinals rookie Lance Lynn, called up earlier in the week, allowed one hit in three scoreless innings.
"Boggs was impressive and Lynn was outstanding," manager Tony La Russa said. "I thought we were going to win."
NOTES: Rookie Mark Hamilton leads the Cardinals with five pinch hits, although he struck out in that role leading off the fifth. "I think it speaks well to his knack for going out there and not fainting," La Russa said. ... Switch-hitting Lance Berkman of St. Louis hit his 300th homer batting left-handed Thursday night, but struck out his first three trips on Friday.
