Bader with a 1 out double to right with Wong slapping on the brakes at 3rd. Babe Mikolas strolls dishward. He hits a soft chopper to 3rd and Arrenado will easily gun down Wong at home with Bader standing pat at 2nd….2 outs. Carpenter grounds out to 2nd and once again we cannot push a run across to pad our lead…let’s hope this doesn’t come back to haunt us. I wouldn’t feel comfy with an 8 run 4th inning lead in this ballpark let alone a 4 run advantage.

stlcard25ParticipantNice inning for Mikolas there. He was well in control. Now let’s get a few more runs!
August 24, 2018 at 9:10 pm #66677Mikolas ties a MLB record set my many, as he dispatches the Rockies in order here in the 4th. Hey, does anyone know the name of the last Cardinal hurler to whack 2 homers in a game? Love to see Mikolas accomplish the feat here this evening.

stlcard25ParticipantO’Neill smokes one out to center that drives in Yadi. Jmart looked like he might catch Yadi and has to stop at 3rd. 5-0 Cards.

stlcard25ParticipantWhat a strange play on the Gyorko fly ball. It seemed like it might go out, the LFer climbed the wall…and it fell almost right on top of him. He missed the catch and another run scores. 6-0 Cards.
August 24, 2018 at 9:22 pm #66685Yadi with a leadoff base knock to open the Redbird 5th. Now Jose slaps a ground ball base hit to right with Yadi holding at 2nd and we are really in business now! O’Neill (31 homers on the year…5 with the big club)….rips one into the left-center field alley and it’ll go all the way to the wall!!…Yadi prance in with the 5th Cardinal tally and Jose will stop at 3rd on the O’Neill rbi double. DeJong flies out to short center and all runners won’t move a muscle…got to get at least one more in. Gyorko strokes one deep to left!…Dahl back at the wall….and off the top of the wall….Jose will score with O’Neill stopping at 3rd on the Jedd 2-bagger….6-0 Birds!

stlcard25ParticipantBlackmon takes Miles deep to make it a 7-2 game. Gotta keep piling on runs if you’re the Cards.
August 24, 2018 at 9:31 pm #66689
stlcard25ParticipantMikolas now serving batting practice to the Rockies. Arenado this time and it’s 7-3.
August 24, 2018 at 9:32 pm #66690Oh oh….Arrenado pokes a dongaroo to left and it might be just about time for Miles to think about applying the Head & Shoulders.
August 24, 2018 at 9:33 pm #66691Just a quick heads up msn has changed their mlb scores page when you go to an individual game…kind of neat imho…just go to msn then mlb and then the cards game…it’s certainly different than the old way…
Maybe we should try and trade for Arenado in the offseason and then extend his contract, maybe a cheaper version of Machado that’s almost as good…
August 24, 2018 at 9:34 pm #66692Miles yielding 10 hits over 4 1/3’s frames….that’s very unMikolasish…lets get him out of here!
August 24, 2018 at 9:34 pm #66693
stlcard25ParticipantThis is about as bad as Mikolas has looked this year. A lot of hits and a lot of good contact. A double play ball would be great here.
August 24, 2018 at 9:34 pm #66695Thanks for the tip, Logan!
August 24, 2018 at 9:36 pm #66696Mikolas should no longer be in this game come on Shildtz get him out!
August 24, 2018 at 9:37 pm #66697Wow! The Rocks are rocking! Earth to Mr. Shildt…..your starting pitcher is toast….please get him the **** out of the game!
August 24, 2018 at 9:37 pm #66698
stlcard25ParticipantThat’s at least twice that Wong has been positioned in a place where he couldn’t get to a ball that the “traditional” alignment would have turned into an out. That one was a double play ball. Hopefully the next one becomes one.
August 24, 2018 at 9:37 pm #66699No problem, I thought at first that it sent me to a different website, much more color and looks a lot better than it used to once you get the hang of it…
August 24, 2018 at 9:39 pm #66700ugh that is what happens when you dont attack the baseball Gyrko you back up and make Wong try to hurry to get the dp because you backed yup and let the ball come to you….this is worst managing job by Shildtz so far….
August 24, 2018 at 9:39 pm #66701Ugh this inning has gotten ugly. Carp needs to pick that throw. Was bad, but.
August 24, 2018 at 9:39 pm #66702
stlcard25ParticipantCards are doing their best to let the Rockies come back from the dead. They couldn’t get the double play anyway but the error now puts a runner on third.
August 24, 2018 at 9:41 pm #66703this is 100% on Shildt for not getting him out 3 batters ago….jesus what a choke job
August 24, 2018 at 9:41 pm #66704Let them, they are back completely.
August 24, 2018 at 9:41 pm #66705Another hit and another run off Mikolas! You DO NOT want to lose a game like this as it could send your team in a serious tailspin! But we still lead by 2 and we have one of the best pens in baseball….we certainly couldn’t say that a month ago.
August 24, 2018 at 9:41 pm #66706
stlcard25Participant7-5 now. Please pull Mikolas. He can’t pitch in this environment, clearly. No grip on his pitches.
This game is shaping up to be a disaster.
