Love to see Peralta pitch deep into this game save the bullpen some.

[adambr2]

Holy cow do I love our catchers. How are they both this good?

[adambr2]

Uncharacteristic couple of swings at pitches out of the strike zone for Thames. Has to put together a couple of bad ABs this series because there's no telling how much whining the Cardinals will do after how much we heard out of Lackey and Bosio.

[adambr2]

Angel Hernandez is horrible. Peralta csnt get a strike call on a pitch right down the middle and yet he rings up Shaw for Wainwright on a high pitch.

[pacopete4]

Santana needs to work on his launch angle. Hits the ball way to hard to have such poor results.

[adambr2]

Someone said recently that they need to burn that Usinger commercial, I have to agree. It's going to be a long year if we need to see a poor blindfolded Uecker continue to get sausage shoved in his face at every commercial break.

Rare game I get to watch. The ump just called strike 3 on Shaw a ball at his letters. What a huge K call. 3-2 1 out if called properly, I'd guess Thames/Braun run on that next pitch.

 

Santana robbed on a liner that was snared by the SS.

It was me. It's a horrible commercial. Whoever though of that idea, while getting the opportunity to use Uecker is a fool.

Yeah it's Angel Hernandez and he's got a reputation for sure. Wainwright has gotten every borderline call. Peralta can't buy a call on the outside corner. At least be consistent.

Its tough to see him in that role, he's better than that. He's been endorsing Usingers for a long time which is fine but let's just stick to the radio for that.

[adambr2]

Nice to see Broxton with the good AB. Let's drive him in.

[adambr2]

That's a terrible AB for Arcia. Didn't get a thing in the strike zone with the pitcher on deck and he should have known he wouldn't with a guy on 3rd.

 

Good job Wily!

[Baldkin]

What a smash up the middle by big Willy.

[adambr2]

Not that that was all impressive of contact but Wily can hit. I remember that bomb he hit last year, just a thing of beauty and no cheap HR.

[adambr2]

Speaking of pitcher HRs...sheesh. Anybody but Wainwright.

[pacopete4]

Just can't give up singers to pitchers. Same ole Wily.

[adambr2]

Sucks, but plenty of game left in this one to put up some runs. This isn't a Cy Young candidate Adam Wainwright anymore.

Or at least he isn't against any other team.

[adambr2]

That wasn't a particularly terrible pitch, but Wily has given up way too many hits this year up 0-2 in counts.

[adambr2]

Get out of it now or it's going to be one of those games.

[pacopete4]

I'm sure since I'm going to the game tomorrow I'll be there to witness this team head under .500 where they will most likely stay for the remainder of the season.

 

Turning this one off. Terrible. I hate the Cardinals.

[adambr2]

Lol Wily. Every time I really want to believe this team can contend reality quickly reminds me that our pitching still sucks badly.

[adambr2]

Going to be safe, and that'll be another run.

[adambr2]

Don't even bother telling us '2 minute challenge time limit' if you have no intention of sticking with it.
