Villone nets first save since '05: Cardinals RP Ron Villone got the final four outs during Wednesday's 7-2 win against the Braves for his first save since 2005. Villone inherited two runners with two outs in the eighth and qualified for the save chance since St. Louis was leading just 5-2 at the time. He allowed just one hit during 1 1/3 scoreless innings.

Fantasy Analysis
The Cardinals just moved Jason Isringhausen back into the closer's role, so don't get any ideas about Villone. He just was in an opportunity to help the bullpen Wednesday. The left-hander is having a pretty poor year and remains nothing more than a NL-only Fantasy middle reliever. (Updated 07/30/2008).
