2023 StL Game #84: Monday, July 3 at Marlins

Sooo.. The wheels come off and 3 runs later we’re behind again. C’mon man!

As for Pete Rose, I was shocked when the Reds did not keep him after ‘78. I thought both sides would do whatever it took to keep him a lifetime Red.

…as Baker swings at a pitch way down and in to K. Five outs left to do something.

Actually looks like a decent crowd in south Florida. Usually when I see clips of Marlin games there looks to be a few hundred in attendance.

The announcers are saying looks like 20,000.

Well we get one more crack at them, Wooster. Arraez leading off the bottom of the 8th and he grounds out sharply to Goldy……I think he’s pretty much hit every ball on the button tonight, but only has one hit to show for it. Cards switching hurlers…..5-4 Miami.

Margie Schott and her pooch, Schottzie….. haven’t heard those names in awhile. Before WhiteyHerDog, Lassie and Rin-tin-tin came along, Schottzie may have been one of the most famous dogs ever.

Yeah I loved Pallante last year, Wooster. This year? Not so much. You wonder what happened to the guy?

Ahhh! Arenado pops out to 2nd. He needed to come up big here. Here’s Contreras…..needs a triple here…… I’d even take a double. On 3-2 he gets rung up on a very high pitch! Gorman grounds out and the Marlins prevail.

Wow. This is easily the most brutal season I can remember….

Oops, posted on the wrong thread, “Another day, another loss”.

Well we were good for as long as Mikolas lasted. Go Cardinals! Better keep Hicks hes about the most consistent we got.

As Jackie DeShannon said in her big hit song:

“Another day goes by, still the children cry….”
