63 runs surrendered.

Cardinals are tied for dead last by giving up 74 runs this season - despite the fact that 23 teams have played more games.

The point of the initial thread was the excellent offense the Cardinals were were playing .

Heading into tonight’s game St. Louis is averaging 6.00 runs per game. 3rd best in MLB.
