    Bader should be primed to hit Lester tonight. Wacha to hopefully make a statement. Are you thinking 2-1…..maybe a 3-2 ballgame here tonight with these two fine hurlers dealing? Nope. I’m calling this one 7-4 Cards with Bader finding the cheap seats.

    Pham needs to phind it….dude has been a disappointment on a few different levels this year. Wonder what we could fetch in a deal for him? Not much I’m afraid.

    Pham started out hot. He was carrying the team through the first month and a half of the season.

    Now, he is ice cold.

    Molina’s walk was the first Cardinal to walk since Sunday.

    You know Matheny is already drooling thinking about getting Bowman into this game with Wacha falling apart in the 3rd.

    The next 6 series should tell us if we are legit or just lucky with the schedule so far. Dang we get all the top dogs.

    Nice hustle by Wacha. Need to make that hurt.

    You still awake, Pugs? Cards have been napping for over a week now and evidently their heads are nodding early tonight. It’s contagious, but Wacha just beat out a casually fielded ground ball by Russell. Maybe Wacha is trying to be that offensive spark plug this club so desperately needs.

    1st base umpire needs to give his paycheck back tonight.

    Why have review? Got it wrong twice.

    The tag on Bader was too close to overturn. I think he was safe but replay is not designed to overturn unless it is clear. There was enough doubt not to overturn.

    It’s unfortunate that Bader slipped on his break from first.

    Must not have had the view we were shown as it was clear as a bell he missed him.

    Bader promptly gets picked off to end the 3rd. He was out by just an eye lash, but that was such a worthwhile risk to take with his team down 3 and the 3 hitter at the plate.

    Wacha is great against everyone but Chicago.

    Also, I really dislike Lester. I wish just once we smoked him for 8 runs.

    Bad fundamentals ruin the game and basically end the chance for St Louis to come back.

    I saw a view from somewhere down the 1B line where it is close whether he tagged him or not. The view from 3B line couldn’t provide any better of a view.

    Did anyone else think that Molina had a chance to tag out Baez at home on that bunt?

    Yes, if Molina had gone for the tag he would’ve gotten him. Part of the reason is because Baez’ slide wasn’t good. Baez slid past the plate too far to the right, I think anticipating he was going to have to avoid Yadi’s tag attempt. Yadi would’ve easily gotten him before he could’ve reached back to tag the plate.

    It looked like it mat have been possible, but Baez was pretty far off the line and I’m not sure if Yadi is quite that nimble. Haha

    And Wacha ends any hope for a comeback. He is just bad tonight. He looked so good the last few starts, not tonight.
