ST. LOUIS — After catching the Matt Holliday runaway train in Game 2, Marco Scutaro said he would be able to play in Game 3 of the NLCS. Scutaro worked out Tuesday night with the rest of the San Francisco Giants at Busch Stadium and said he was feeling better after Holliday crashed into him trying to break up a double play in the first inning on Monday. Holliday's violent slide knocked over Scutaro and caused him pain on the left side — from his hip, to his groin, and down to his knee. Scutaro stayed in the game and later contributed a three-run single that (with the help of Holliday's error in left field) helped to bust open Game 2, which the Giants won 7-1 to even the series. The St. Louis Cardinals host up to three games starting Wednesday afternoon. Scutaro said he strained muscles in his hip and around his knee. In giving his version of recent events, Scutaro showed a sense of humor. He said "saw this train coming" and it was Holliday. "I pretty much didn't have time to do anything," Scutaro said. "He was pretty much on top of me. I don't even know how I threw the ball to first — but I think I did, right?" Scutaro's pain worsened and he didn't play the final...
Marco Scutaro good to go for Game 3
