Tatis Jr. Steals the Show, Game Three Tonight

October 02, 2020 13:05 - 19 minutes - 17.4 MB

Fernando Tatis Jr. broke out with two home runs last night, helping the Padres to an 11-9 win over the Cardinals. It was a great, back and forth game but in the end, the Padres offense was too much for St. Louis. The bullpen had a rare game of ineffectiveness as no one could tame the San Diego lineup, and St. Louis' lineup couldn't keep up. Jack Flaherty gets the ball today for the Cardinals and San Diego has a depleted bullpen which is a huge advantage to St. Louis. Listen for Lucas' breakd...

Cardinals Take Game One Over the Padres!

October 01, 2020 06:15 - 19 minutes - 18 MB

The St. Louis Cardinals won Game One 7-4 over the San Diego Padres last night. In a surprising development, the offense awoke for 4 runs in the first inning, and ended the game with 13 hits. While KK Kim didn't have his best stuff, the bullpen came in and didn't allow an earned run, showing the Padres what the NL Central already knows -> this bullpen is incredibly talented. Yesterday saw a historic 8 playoff games in one day, and Lucas gives his brief talk on what went down. In game two the ...

Cardinals Punch Ticket to Postseason

September 28, 2020 05:05 - 20 minutes - 19.4 MB

The St. Louis Cardinals are heading back to the postseason for the second consecutive year following a 5-2 win over the Milwaukee Brewers. This is a remarkable feat for the Cardinals, taking into account the originally shortened schedule and the extra complications with an internal COVID break out, forcing another 17-day-delay within the season. Lucas looks back at how the Cardinals got here, appreciates how special it is for any team to make the playoffs, recaps the Brewer series and looks ...

Yadi Collects Hit Number 2,000 and Cards Start Series on a High Note

September 25, 2020 05:00 - 21 minutes - 19.9 MB

Cardinal catcher Yadier Molina collected his 2,000th hit last night, and St. Louis beat the Milwaukee Brewers 4-2. It was a big win for the Redbirds as they try and find some sort of consistency down the stretch heading into October. Beyond Dylan Carlson, no Cardinal recorded an extra base hit and they continued to struggle with RISP, gathering one hit in 16 at-bats in that scenario last night. Despite the headlines being grabbed by Carlson and Molina, the offense needs to find a way to prod...

Cardinals Stumbling Into Final Series

September 24, 2020 14:21 - 19 minutes - 17.4 MB

The St. Louis Cardinals have tripped, stumbled and fallen into the final weekend of the season. St. Louis dropped two of three against the Royals, and end the road trip at 7-6. This offense isn't getting it done, despite flashes of success sprinkled in throughout the season. Carlos Martinez's start could've been his last as a Cardinal, as he is just too much of a question mark. This final weekend series against the Brewers is make or break, and if the Cardinals are going to step up, the time...

Carlson and Gomber Lead the Cardinals to a Win

September 23, 2020 05:00 - 18 minutes - 17.2 MB

Behind the arm of Austin Gomber and the bat of Dylan Carlson the St. Louis beat the Kansas City Royals 5-0. Gomber went six shutout innings and Carlson went 3-4, just a home run away from the cycle. If Carlson gets going, watch out because that could be a big boost to the Cardinal offense. St. Louis is now the 5th seed in the NL, slated to play the San Diego Padres if the postseason started today. While there's a lot of baseball to be played, the Cardinals control their own destiny going dow...

Sluggish Offense To Blame For Loss

September 22, 2020 14:50 - 21 minutes - 19.4 MB

It's no secret the Cardinals have a weak offense, but the last week that fact has been more apparent than usual. Another night came where the Cardinals had only one extra base hit, and they are still struggling with Runners in Scoring Position. Lucas breaks down Adam Wainwright's start, the rare ineffectiveness of Giovanny Gallegos and how the Royal bullpen shut down the Cardinal offense. He also takes a dive into some numbers of how bad the Cardinal offense has been. Support Us By Supportin...

Cardinals Fall to Pirates, Postseason Seems Less Likely

September 18, 2020 05:23 - 19 minutes - 18.3 MB

With a 5-1 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates last night, the St. Louis Cardinals are 22-24 and on the outside looking in to the postseason. Steven Brault of the Pirates went the distance, only allowing 2 hits to the Cardinal offense. If the Cardinals want to make the postseason, the offense needs to start hitting more consistently. The two teams play a doubleheader today, and Carlos Martinez has an opportunity to show us that he's matured by playing the "stopper" role for the Cardinals. Lucas g...

Another (Yes, ANOTHER) Doubleheader Split

September 17, 2020 05:00 - 20 minutes - 18.6 MB

Yet another doubleheader ended in a split for the Cardinals, and St. Louis finishes the five game series against Milwaukee with a 2-3 record. Game one saw another exceptional performance from Adam Wainwright, and game two gave us another reason that Johan Oviedo isn't Major-League ready. This offense has to start showing consistency if October baseball is in its future. Luckily for the Cardinals, they have a five game series against the worst team in baseball.

Cards Suffer Embarrassing Loss To Brewers

September 16, 2020 15:13 - 17 minutes - 16.1 MB

The St. Louis Cardinals suffered an 18-3 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers last night, one of the uglier losses in recent memory. After a first inning run for St. Louis, it was all downhill. Jack Flaherty had one of the worst starts of his career, and the already-depleted bullpen couldn't stop the bleeding. Tempers flared in the 5th after Yadier Molina was called for catcher's interference and words were exchanged, but that was about the only interesting thing that happened last night. Lucas is ...

Another Doubleheader Split for Cards

September 15, 2020 15:02 - 19 minutes - 18.3 MB

The St. Louis Cardinals and Milwaukee Brewers split their doubleheader yesterday and pitching dominated on both sides. KK Kim was impressive in his return to action and the Cardinals couldn't create many chances against Josh Lindolm. In game two, Daniel Ponce de Leon went six strong innings in what was one of his most dominant starts of his career. The Cardinal offense blew many chances in game two, going 5-20 with RISP. With Jack Flaherty on the mound tonight, St. Louis can set itself up ni...

Disappointing Series Against Reds, Brew Crew Up Next

September 14, 2020 05:00 - 19 minutes - 18.2 MB

The St. Louis Cardinals lost two of three against the Reds this weekend, showing signs of promise and disappointment at the same time. In the only win, the Cardinals flexed their offensive muscles, hitting four homeruns. The bats went remotely silent on Friday and Sunday, and Sunday saw a rare bullpen malfunction. Carlos Martinez showed how dominate his stuff can be, which is promising for a pitching staff that has taken hits in recent days. The final two weeks of the season will be wild, wi...

Key Series This Weekend Against The Reds

September 11, 2020 06:18 - 21 minutes - 20 MB

The St. Louis Cardinals conclude their seven game homestand with a three game series against the Cincinnati Reds this weekend. This will be the last time the Cardinals and Reds play each other, and it might be the last chance the Reds have to stay alive in the pennant chase. Adam Wainwright gives the Cardinals a great chance to win in game one, and Dakota Hudson's improvements from last season is a good reason to have confidence in game two. Lucas discusses how important this series is for b...

September 11, 2020 00:58 - 19 minutes - 17.5 MB

The St. Louis Cardinals split a doubleheader yesterday against the Detroit Tigers. Game One saw an offensive onslaught by the Redbirds, scoring 12 runs.

September 09, 2020 15:28 - 27 minutes - 25.5 MB

The St. Louis Cardinals and Minnesota Twins each won a game in yesterday's doubleheader.

Successful Series (So Far) In Chicago

September 07, 2020 07:30 - 21 minutes - 19.8 MB

The St. Louis Cardinals have secured a series win against Chicago by winning three of the first four games. Cardinal pitching continues to be the strength of the team, with the offense showing signs of life as the series has progressed. The St. Louis bullpen seems to be getting stronger as the season goes along and as more arms return from the COVID IL, the team seems poised for a postseason run. If the Cardinals can get one, just one, outfielder on track, this team could make some noise com...

Wainwright Defies Age Again, Cards Salvage Series

August 31, 2020 06:02 - 19 minutes - 17.9 MB

Adam Wainwright threw his first complete game since 2016, and he continues to defy baseball odds and pitch well at age 39.

Even with a win yesterday, the Cardinals sit at 12-13, 3.5 games out of first place and they enter a key stretch of division games in the coming weeks. Can they take two out three against the Reds? Lucas breaks that down in this episode of Locked on C...

The St. Louis Cardinals lost a close one, 5-4, to the Kansas City Royals last night. The 8th and 9th innings were full of moments to break down, including a play at the plate and a 1-out triple that didn't score.
