    And as I key that in he advances into scoring position representing the lead run.

    Real nice mitt over at 3B from Urias to get the final out of the top half.

    Fermin’s trying for a stylish look with the eyeblack…Alice Cooper?

    Saw him do that a few times in the ’25 WS…3-2, Seattle.

    Pitch was on the low inside corner but that’s typically a power lefty’s wheelhouse.

    Overall aside from a frustrating walk or two, Pallante was good tonight. I’m not sure what to think about his 8 strikeouts and only 4 or 5 ground outs. He still needs to keep the ball on the ground when it is hit.

    And our bullpen that walks everyone starts us off with a . . . Walk. That’s what they do.

    And he walks another hitter. Because that’s what we do.

    Bruihl induces a grounder and Wetherholt makes a nice quick turn and win fires his cannon to nab the 2nd for a double play. That’s one way to fix the walks. We have a really nice combo up the middle.

    I’m not sure there’s another arm that turns that GIDP.

    Kirby back out there for the 6th still under 70 pitches.

    The Cardinals haven’t done a real good job in regards to forcing the Seattle pitcher to work for his money.

    Kirby got away with one on that 2-1 hanger to Gorman and he really knew it.

    This Car Shield looks like it’s getting to be a big money maker. I would have never thought that people would need two types of insurance on a single vehicle.

    Starting from April 14, the game after Walker hit his last home run, Walker has 32 at bats and 15 strikeouts. He’s walked 3 times and has 6 hits.

    Think he might be cooling off a little, Jnevel?

    I actually think he was never good. He is such a guess hitter and he so often guesses wrong. For whatever reason, he had about a 10-game stretch where he was suddenly guessing right and he became uber confident. Tonight he doesn’t look like he belongs in the Major Leagues. He is missing a huge piece of his development in pitch recognition. He needs to somehow go back and get that piece.

    Kirby back out there to work in the 7th at 80 pitches.

    And a solid base hit from Winn to lead off the home half chases the Seattle SP’er. I won’t miss him too much.

    I don’t know what Fermin’s looking for but that 0-1 pitch was fat and juicy.

    The whole lower part of our order when they hit the ball it sounds exactly like a paddle hitting a ping pong ball.

    You’re not kidding…It’s a Big League version of a slumber party pillow fight.

    Graceffo challenges Naylor with a 2-2 fastball to retire him with the K. He’s been way better than respectable.

    And he mimics the previous sequence as he challenges Arozarena with another 2-2 fastball. Same pitch, same result.
