Hudson is everywhere except the strike zone in the 2nd inning. Bases loaded and no outs after two freebies, one a HPB and throwing error on Hudson.
Our old pal, Greg Garcia, whiffs on an inside 2-seamer…..2 outs now with Pads occupying 2nd & 3rd in a tie ballgame.
Now an infield hit by Tatis catapults San Diego into a 2-1 advantage.
Getting updates on my phone. I see sd has scored 7 runs in the 2nd. DH must missing the location. I mean what else could it be?
Hudson gives this one away early. He’s getting massacred, now 7-1. He needs to be removed before now, still in the 2nd inning. We’ll see what Shildt does, but it doesn’t matter. The only hope is for Edman to have a 5-HR night and possibly somewhere along the way the Ca rds sneak a a few runners on base in front of those HRs.
Shildt’s rant against “the town” is not aging well at all. All that clean has gotten so dirty. How about winning some games and quit worrying about all of those mean things people say about your million dollar professionals that stink it up night after night.
We are now the team everyone wants to play when they need a break. 7-1 bottom of the 2nd. Those fans look like they’re having a great time.
Hudson utilizing a heck of a lot of ammo here in the 2nd as he’s now up to 48 pitches for the game and counting….and now Big Hoss bloops a California leaguer into center making it 3-1 Pads. Let’s stay with the action for a bit shall we?
Machado – Oh oh!! Thar she blows! Drilled deep to center and gone ..6-1 Pads.
Reyes – Not again! Hit deep to left-center…..Fowler drifts back and it’ll just eclipse the wall for yet another Padre homer…..and just as fast as you can say “The Cardinal starting pitching is lame”, the Pads have busted this baby wide open….7-1. And Hudson is now being sent down the Hudson to the showers as his night is history.
Enter Daniel Ponce de Leon to restore order and restore order he will!
I like the look of that lineup tonight. Call it a hunch, but I think that bunch could put up an 8 spot. Hopefully Hudson can keep pitching well.
Gonna have to score 8 now with that disaster. Or maybe my presience was directed at San Diego. Must be nice to score at will on occasion.
All of us have seen enough baseball over the years to know exactly where our team is headed. When was the last time we finished in the basement?
I still have hope Matt Carp will hit a 6-run homer off the bench. Never gonna give up. There’s still time for us to come back.
1918 or 1990…..? Two extremely esteemed posters in Euro and Dave, so I don’t know who to believe??? Can someone breK the tie.
1990
East Division
Tm W L
Pittsburgh Pirates 95 67
New York Mets 91 71
Montreal Expos 85 77
Chicago Cubs 77 85
Philadelphia Phillies 77 85
St. Louis Cardinals 70 92Adding that the Cards had the worst record in baseball in 1918. Hopefully that dubious distinction is not at risk this year. That would be an epic collapse.
Stlcard25 breaks the deadlock…..thanks stlcard25! Boy it’ll be 29 years in between cellar finishes. Let’s hope it’ll be another 29 until the next one as I’ll be so old that I won’t give a hoot anyway.
On the bright side if the Cardinals end up with the worst record we’ll get a high draft pick next year.
Thinking about that 29 years from now in the year 2048. We should all make a pact to make it until the year 2048. Wonder what Brian’s yearly rates will be then? $455 I predict…
with a 2% off for all of us old timers.I guess it depends on what you mean by “the basement.” I just looked it up and to Dave’s credit, in 1918 there were no divisions and the Cards had the worst record in all of baseball, NL and AL.
In 1990, the Braves and the Yanks had worse records than the Cards, but the Cards were in the NL East division basement. I’m sure everybody remembers the geographically challenged Atlanta Braves being in the West Division.
