WRONG! It took 2 minutes.

Well Gorman only struck out 3 times today. Cards could have pulled within 3 1/2 out but the game got olied

Tough loss. Didn't take our best shot.

But... we aren't trying to win. So it's okay!

One walk
14 SO’s

That was a famous Harry call about Ken Boyer back in early 60s when he came to the plate with the bases loaded two outs in the 9th inning the midst of a long slump. Boyer’s wife was listening, told Kenny and Harry was lucky he didn’t get his head torn off the next day. Was reprimanded by front office.

Harry had it in for Boyer because he turned down an interview. So Harry badmouthed him every chance he got. A petty man.

This organization isn't worried about winning. That's not Mo's endgame. The goal is non-pressure play. OLI BALL is an exercise of below average results!

This organization needs to take walks more seriously. How many times do they pull in a guy out of the bullpen who immediately walks the first batter? It cost them the game today.

Secondly, I know Bernie says they should trade Donnie and Noot. I’d rather give up on Gorman and Walker. Both strike out entirely too much.

Third, I understand most of the bullpen isn’t available but why pull Mikolas at 77 pitches with a short bullpen?

3 hits and 14 k's.. hard to win like that
