A real-time look at the emotional roller coaster of a no-hit bid.
6/2/18: Sweet Emotion – Wong’s laser marks the second walk-off homer of the series
It's game 3 of a 4 game series at home. Thursday night featured a thrilling walk-off finish followed by Friday's disappointment of getting shutout. The inconsistency of the offense continues to plague this Cardinals team. But today is a new day. On this summer Saturday afternoon, it's 76 degrees and cloudy. We had some rain…
6/1/18: Cardinals prove that four-run comebacks aren’t automatic against the Pirates
Tonight, at Busch Stadium, the St. Louis Cardinals, led by Miles Mikolas, faced the Pittsburgh Pirates, led by Not Miles Mikolas. Would the Cardinals follow last night's thriller by following The Best Pitcher In Baseball to victory, or would the Pirates get lucky? Anyway, I'm tired so this game better not go to extra innings.…
Cardinals players as defined by a song from their adolescence
A look at how the song that was #1 when you turned 14 actually can define your life.
Something Doesn’t Look Right: Carlos Martinez Rehabs in Springfield
Editor's note: This post is written by Jason Bradshaw, who is a resident of Springfield, MO, as well as a noted early adapter to the Harrison Bader movement which is sweeping Cardinals fandom (he bought a custom-ordered Bader shirsey in 2016 when he was playing in Springfield). He was kind enough to report on Carlos…
5/31–Cardinals play baseball game to end May against the Pirates
Tonight, the St. Louis Cardinals played their 54th game of the 2018 season. This game is the exact one-third mark of the season, and thus it is a pretty logical time to calculate the team's pace for the season. If the Cardinals won tonight, they'd stand at 90 wins. If they lost, they'd stand at…
Wait, again? Another Cardinals/Pirates preview
For the next four days, starting tonight, the Cardinals will play the Pittsburgh Pirates. This site has been around a little over a month and this is the third Cardinals/Pirates series preview I've written. I'm getting so sick of these teams playing each other, man. Look, I like baseball: I promise. I even, in and…
Facebook and the future of baseball broadcasts
On Wednesday afternoon, Cardinals super-prospect Alex Reyes made his 2018 Major League debut in Milwaukee, delighting and then terrifying fans with his two-strikeouts-and-a-pickoff first inning and later being pulled from the game after just four innings. It was, for a regular season weekday game in May, extremely anticipated among Cardinals fans, but it was an…
5.30.18 Recap: Blame it on Facebook
Alex Reyes's eagerly awaited return to MLB happened today, and literally nobody got to watch, because 1) day game and 2) Facebook had exclusive broadcast rights. I know what you're thinking, dear reader. But trust me when I say that I really think this Facebook thing is never gonna catch on. At any rate, it…
5 pieces of Cardinals memorabilia that I probably don’t need
I left my very first Cardinals game hugging on tight to my new seat cushion even though virtually everyone else had flung theirs onto the field in celebration. I was too young, too far away from the field to join in the fun. And it had the Slugger Bird logo on it so I didn't really…
