Adam Wainwright is rounding back into the shape the St. Louis Cardinals have become accustomed to from their ace. Wainwright posted his 19th win, pitching a shutout Wednesday night as the Cardinals beat the Milwaukee Brewers 2-0 to hold their 2 1/2-game edge in the NL Central. ''It was good to be back making pitches when I need to.'' Wainwright (19-9) worked around seven hits and tied for the major league lead in wins and shutouts. Milwaukee dropped 2 1/2 games behind the Pirates for the second NL wild-card spot.
