St. Louis 2026 Game #33 thread – Saturday, May 2 vs. Los Angeles Dodgers

[AlbertTheMachine]

There is the walk BikeMike. Now what a 3 run bomb? Seems like the Stanek way

[1toughdominican]

Should have walked out and got him as soon as the base hit from Hernandez.

[Jnevel]

Stanek . . . Sigh . . .

Pages (the Dodger version) rescues Stanek twice by swinging at pitches in the dirt.

[1toughdominican]

Pages did him a favor on the 2-1 pitch.

[AlbertTheMachine]

Wow Pages bails Stanek out swinging at 2 pitches that were 2 feet away from the zone

[1toughdominican]

Haha…He really let him off the hook on the 3-2!

[bicyclemike]

Well Pages bailed us out by swinging at two pitches way out of the zone. Stanek lucked out there.

[blingboy]

They’re falling short of the wall tonight.

[Ratsbuddy]

To the 9th still with the 3-0 lead.

Assume it’s Riley time?

[Jnevel]

1 more inch and Winn’s ball bounces over the wall to ruin Riley’s save opportunity. Alas, just a double. O’Brien coming in to preserve the shutout and win.

[Ratsbuddy]

Doyers have the tying run at the plate with two outs.

That being Teoscar Hernandez.

Stay tuned…….

[1toughdominican]

Looked like Wetherholt got his mitt on it. Just couldn’t quite squeeze it for the final out.

[Jnevel]

Three balls hit off our infielders gloves. The first one was a borderline error by Winn. The other 2 would have been fantastic plays.

And now a ground ball hit just beyond Urias’ glove as he dives at 3rd. 3-2 now.

And O’Brien strikes out Rushing to end it.

Don’t be concerned about O’Brien in this one. It was more good and/or lucky hitting than bad pitching. Riley still looked nasty.

[1toughdominican]

I’d say it’s a game of inches. And it’s never easy…

[Ratsbuddy]

And now it’s a 3-2 game and the Doyers have runners at 1st and 2nd with two outs.

[1toughdominican]

The Bogsider from Derry makes a pitch and seals it shut for the W!

[Ratsbuddy]

And Rushing fans to end it!

3-2 Redbirds the final.

[Carter Le Grand]

WOW

[1toughdominican]

These baby El Birdos are beginning to think they can compete. That’s never a bad thing.

[blingboy]

Ha ha, Ken Rosenthal is a shrimp next to Walker. Bad visual. Get a box.

[AlbertTheMachine]

A series win with a chance for a sweep against the mighty Dodgers. I did not see that coming.

[1toughdominican]

That pitch for the final out showed me that O’Riley O’Brien can make a pitch when he really, really needs to trust his talent and make a pitch. The Bogsider from Derry has testicular fortitude…

[AlbertTheMachine]

Ha ha, Ken Rosenthal is a shrimp next to Walker. Bad visual. Get a box.

Ha yeah that was a sight. Jordan was towering over him

[KeepComingBack]

Favorite game of the year so far.

[Gagliano]

After being swept, the Cards have won 6 in a row. And in the last 11 games, they’ve held the opposition under 5 runs 8 times. The bad guys’ run total has been 11, 7, 5, 4, 4, 3, 3, 3, 2, 2, and 2. The Cards gave up at least 5 runs in 6 of their first 11 games and 7 of their second 11. Is the pitching beginning to tighten up?

1td-

Yes on that pitch from O’Brien!
