I didn't mind McGehee in that spot at all. At this point, scoring 4-5 more runs while holding STL to 0-1 is quite possible. Even if McGehee got at hit (except for a HR), you're still needing one more 2-out hit to score a run. Keeping Kotsay and the other better PHs for higher-leverage situations is decent strategy, especially with La Russa's penchant to bring in 3-4 relievers.
