2 HR and a double for Busch
and of course the walk before the HR
We may not score any more runs this year. Sad offense.

Just got home in tine to see Arenado hit a HR, then shockingly a Gorman K on a pitch 18” off the plate and at his ankles.
Gorman considers that the strike zone ... ankles to 4 inches below the knees ....

That’s ridiculous!! How is Busch allowed to wear us out like this. Hitting close to .500 against us this year with now 9 HRs. Someone put him on his backside. He just camps in the batters box and wails away.

They just don't do that anymore. I admit I thought the same thing. I remember Curt Simmons pitching for the Cubs against the Cards in his last season (may have been his last mlb game) pitching to eight batters and not getting any outs. But he knocked down every Cardinal batter and some twice. They took him out after 8 hitters with no outs yet. They would have kicked him out nowadays. That being said, they could make him move his feet and get away with it. They just don't.

You are correct. If he hit HR at the rate he does against us with all teams he would have about 100 home runs. Not acceptable.

The “speedster” Herrera picked off and stuck in rundown.
This team’s baserunning is the worst I’ve ever seen.
Just get the season over already.

MIDMO……I’m not advocating for a head hunting venture but we have to make him a little more uncomfortable at the plate. He’s standing there and teeing off. It doesn’t happen today enough but maybe it should.
