[adambr2]

More awesome defense.

[jonescm128]

This K zone on ESPN is not doing a good job at showing actual strikes

[Jeff-B]

Pens rested enough that chacin should be pulled after 5.

Good Call

I want 1.1 jeffress 2 hader 1 albers GN

[Underachiever]

In case anyone is here in St. Louis, I have four tickets available for tomorrow's game. My friends flaked on me. Great seats, box 165, row D, you can get a real sweet deal.

[TJseven7]

In mke and my STL contact is a cards fan...

I know it's probably grounds for a permanent banning to say anything complimentary about a Cardinal, but I really enjoyed Wainwright talking about his garden.

You mean you really enjoyed Wainwright talking about retiring, correct?

[stoutdude04]

Lame. Villar slips. Boo

[TJseven7]

Rough to not score there.

[jerichoholicninja]

So Sedar sent him but Villar held up on his own, which was probably the right call anyway.

 

Twilight zone.

[Eye Black]

I can’t remember a more frustrating base runner than Jonathan Villar, albeit this time in a different way. Seems strange he would stop at third with Sedar sending him unless he slipped or something.

 

Edit: I think it would have been close, he may very well have been out, but it was going to be close.

[nate82]

That was a good no go by Villar there. It didn't look like he slipped more like he put on the brakes.

[TJseven7]

Lame. Villar slips. Boo

 

New ways, he'll find them.

[markedman5]

Braun gets a clutch 2 out hit......Seder sends Villar....but he decides against trying to score with 2 outs.....did I get that right? That's what it sounded like Lepay was saying.

[pacopete4]

There was a time I would have loved to see Sedar take a chance. Villar was already rounding third as Ozuna got to the ball on Braun’s single. Lefty-lefty matchup waiting for Shaw, let Villar get after it.

 

Edit: Sedar may have been sending him. Villar a stumble around third.

[TJseven7]

Not sure I agree with this 5th up placement for Hader.

[JohnBriggs12]

I thought he'd would have scored fairly easily. Didn't look like he slipped to message. With two outs he has to go.

[adambr2]

Good to see Braun come through with a big hit, even though it was for naught.

 

Villar is frustrating, and I say that as a guy who wants him at 2B daily. I know it was just an accidental slip, but man, it feels like it's always something.

[stoutdude04]

Haders velocity down too...concerning that everyone's velo is down.

[adambr2]

I thought he'd would have scored fairly easily. Didn't look like he slipped to message. With two outs he has to go.

 

So what happened? Sedar did send him, didn't he?

[stoutdude04]

It looked like Villar stumbled when he stepped on 3rd. Just unfortunate.

[stoutdude04]

I thought he'd would have scored fairly easily. Didn't look like he slipped to message. With two outs he has to go.

 

So what happened? Sedar did send him, didn't he?

 

Yes. It looked like he stumbled slightly around 3rd. Didn't get a good push off anyways.

[TJseven7]

Haders velocity down too...concerning that everyone's velo is down.

 

Was about to post this.

[pacopete4]

Yep, stumbled rounding the bag. Instead of compounding it, he stayed put. Is what it is. I’m sure the peanut gallery will have a field day with it though.

Hader averaged 95-mph with the fastball in his first outing of the year, but it appears has been down a couple of miles on the fastball since then.
