The car accident?
Haha didn't even check it.  Was just trolling PC.  He's largely correct.

Considering Espinosa and Lobaton are likely to make outs, you could make the argument to send him back out for the 7th with the Cards having 8,9, and 1 coming up.  As long as you have someone ready in the pen, that's how I would play it.  Long road trip and bullpen conservation is going to be important.

I haven't liked the amount of hits he's been giving up the last couple of innings. But I suppose against the bottom of the order up 3 you can chance it. Then again its Kolten Wong at the bottom and he always kills us.

Lobie is a bad bunter

So he strikes out on a pitch that keeps the runner on first as opposed to pitch when second was cleanly stolen...

I like how they said by bunting he was showing respect for Joe Ross's hitting ability. Maybe 10% that....

Michael Taylor keeps coming up in big spots and failing.  He really is the new Ian Desmond.

In fairness, 85 and hanging up in the zone is hard for everyone to hit... Right?  Right?  Taylor sucks...

Let's go Rendon.    Make mimo's numbers work.

Well at least he didn't GIDP  :|

Time for Rendon to finally come through with RISP and drive a classic Tony Two Bag gapper to put this baby away.

Line drive, hard hit, right at someone.  I'm surprised Anthony hasn't shoved a bat up an outfielder's ass yet.  Great composure on his part.

We need more lucky players like Ted Williams and Willie Mays.

Ew Solis.

Why did Ross hit if he wasn't going to pitch? Does Dusty not trust our bench bats at all?

He hit it hard, but he is still hitting almost everything to the opposite field.  His timing is not good right now
