Guys........we're gonna do this tonight. The slide ends here!

How close was Davis's hit? Ueck made it sound like it was gone initially

Hit at the base of the wall.

With Kelly on an 85-90 pitch limit, probably going to be a lot of arms used tonight for the Cards. Big first inning in more ways than one. Keep it going Segura!

[DuWayne Steurer]

You know what? It's nice to see Segura square up and hit a ball hard in the air, even if it was an out. At least it wasn't a dribbler to the shortstop.

When your on a slide like we have been, playing with a lead could be a huge factor.

agreed. baby steps. maybe he'll even get a hit today!

[wildcat83]

Good lord does Yo nibble when he gets two strikes. Be aggressive and he would pitch deeper into games. Seems like he's always chasing the punch out almost to a fault.

[wildcat83]

Dead Simmons, no catching prospects at AAA that could fill in? Cards system is raved about so much, seems odd they wouldn't have a better option than Kottaras. Although catcher isn't a position that's easy to have depth at.

[DuWayne Steurer]

SCOOOOOOOTER!

 

Break out the bats!

SCORERUNSVILLE IS THE HAPPENING PLACE!

Way to open it up Scooter! Give an assist to the fan on the left field line as well. Probably an out if he's not there.

That was great. Holliday giving him the stink-eye was even better. Come on Matty, he didn't reach over the rail, that was a fair play for the fan to go after that ball.

[wildcat83]

AWESOME! Ball in beer cup catch. Fans are getting into the action tonight!

[DuWayne Steurer]

Come on, don't leave a guy on 3rd who was there with nobody out......

[chadomac]

BA: "ball in beer"

BS: "that just adds flavor"

[adamb100]

It feels like heaven scoring runs.

It's amazing how Braun can't pull anything with any sort of power, but he still keeps putting up productive numbers by going the other way.

And pitchers keep going outside on him.

Love seeing the Cards bullpen getting busy in the 2nd inning.

He's not pulling anything because he's standing a mile off the plate. Might be to protect his thumb from getting jammed, who knows. Fully believe if he moved back up on the plate he would pull balls with power.

Is it greedy to want 24 runs, at this pace?

[swheeler23]

Is it greedy to want 24 runs, at this pace?

no, but save some for tomorrow

[phnxcrew]

[DuWayne Steurer]

Siggy with another hard hit ball.
