2019-03-31: Cardinals (Wacha) at Brewers (Burnes) [Yelich’s 4th HR in 4 games; Burnes records 12 K’s; Comeback walk-off win on Yelich double]

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Burnes needs to stop striking so many guys out so he can keep his pitch count down. Only partially joking

 

36 pitches through 2 innings isn't bad. I imagine they'll be happy to get 5-6 innings out of him today.

 

True. With the state of our bullpen I would love to see a 7 inning start by a starter soon

 

Me too. But they have guys like Houser and Diplan that will be on that San Antonio shuttle if they need a fresh arm. Petricka, Wilkerson, and Fields too if they need an arm. That shuttle is going to get a workout. Was hoping that they'd maybe be able to go a week before doing that, though.

Ponce, Sanchez, Brown, Webb...............

[PinaMadness]

Are we finally turning Goldy human?

[topper09er]

Burnes has now tied Josh Hader for the most IP in a game where 100% of outs = K

Yep, those too. Brown and Sanchez I imagine will be close. Perdomo too. Ponce too if they are seasoning him to be a reliever. Lots of live arms available int he upper minors. Its going to be a lot of fun to follow the minors this year.

[MrTPlush]

Cardinals have struck out an entire 4 innings straight.

 

Strikeouts are nice, but almost 60 pitches in 3 innings. Not good.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

So ... Corbin Burnes has something going today.

[PinaMadness]

Approaching Clemens and Big Unit territory now.

[topper09er]

Burnes now has the all-time record for most IP in a game where 100% of outs = K

A little early cowboy. Settle down.

Yeah but he walked a guy so he sucks.

Eh, I imagine they'll let him go 100 pitches. If they can get 5 innings, great. If he's efficient, maybe 6. I'll take that.

[RollieTime]

9 K’s through 3 innings for Burnes. Is this some kind of record for a first career start having the first 9 outs being via the strikeout?

[Bulldogboy]

The electricity of his slider is incredible. Fun to watch.

[82brewcrew82]

Not a bad hack either.

[Brew crew 92]

Cards fans more than a little surprised at how strong our rotation looks now. Fawning over Burnes like we are.

 

Even better how they should have gotten Yelich instead of Ozuna talk!

love me some woodruff and burnes. The intensity, velocity and location are exceptional. So glad we finally went with the younger, higher ceiling guys.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

So ... Corbin Burnes has something going today.

A little early cowboy. Settle down.

 

LOL, well, it's not a no-no, so no problem talking about it. 9 Ks though 3 innings is fun.

[MrTPlush]

Burnes now has the all-time record for most IP in a game where 100% of outs = K

 

Hope he doesn’t achieve that record. But at his rate he only needs 6 more Ks to get there officially (in a good way).

[PinaMadness]

Cain should just stop at first every time

Seaver's were actually 10 straight PA though, Wong snuck his little oppo single to break things up a bit

[Harold Hutchison]

Approaching Clemens and Big Unit territory now.

 

If he's cruising like this... let him pitch.

[topper09er]

We have had 1 player lead the NL in IBB and 1 player lead the AL in IBB, can you name them?

[82brewcrew82]

Gotta swing the bat Shaw.
