I can guarantee one thing about this afternoons game: The Cards won't even attempt a steal on fucking Lester. He's got 'em mystified!

Didn't take long for the kid to get jobbed by the plate ump .

I stand by my belief that Almora sucks.

Nice job by Baez to cover second on that bunt

Kyle Schwarber

Bench Schwarber. Or option him to AAA.

is he wearing outfielder glasses or some 80s retro glasses I see teenagers wearing these days

Might be time to start seriously considering turning Schwarber into pitching help, as well as the addition-by-subtraction of getting someone who can actually play defense in the outfield.

Who knew Matheny would grow a pair?

Whoops!

Ian Happ is dumb

BUST

Rookie mistake there. they weren't going to turn 2 anyway with the high throw to 2nd. can this team score more than a run today?

nice throw scwarb

WTF was that?

he needs to start batting down in the order . maybe the pressure is getting to him.

These pink uniforms are awful

Maddon needs to read a book on bullpen management, Christ. Take a break from filming Binny's commercials and refine your craft, you hipster doofus.

What is Joe's deal about batting this scrub 4th?

Hey, they don't have to win 'em all, they just need to start winning series.

down 2, javi leading off, swings at first pitch and pops out weakly. baseball fundamentals is lost on him it seems.

He's irritating as hell.

I thought Babe got all of that one.

I'm going to bounce from the spot for awhile but I will be back at some point to argue with you about this hoops stuff again. Playoffs have been great this season. See ya up the road.

I'm out.

Does putting a sub-.200 hitter in the leadoff spot everyday, ensuring he gets the most plate appearances, get you closer to a championship?

Most overrated manager in baseball. Without Terry Francona to copycat, Maddon is lost at sea.
