geezer Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 End of three with the score the same SLU up 3-2. In the third the Bravo continued to struggle allowing the bases to load with a walk and a hit batter before getting the third out. Lamar offense goes down 1-2-3. Quote
geezer Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 Cards finally get a couple of timely hits to score three runs and take a 5-3 lead heading to the top of the fifth. Quote
geezer Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 Bravo walks the first batter in the fifth and Davis makes a pitching change. I suppose Davis was hoping to get Bravo through five innings, but may regret not going to the reliever to start the inning. Question in a seven inning game is four innings enough for the starting pitcher to get the win? Quote
geezer Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 Cardinals relievers keep their streak of allowing runners on base when they come in to score. A triple scores the batter Bravo walked and a homer gets SLU a total of three to retake the lead at 6-5. Quote
geezer Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 Top of the sixth Douthit comes into pitch for Buckendorff with two outs and a hit batter on first to end Buckendorff's day. Douthit breaks the cycle by striking out the first batter faced to end the top of the inning. Quote
geezer Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 Lamar gets the tying run on base in the bottom of the seventh but fails to get it home and the Cards drop the first game of the double header and second game of the series 6-5. Game three will start in about thirty minutes. Quote
lamarfan360 Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 Lamar gets the tying run on base in the bottom of the seventh but fails to get it home and the Cards drop the first game of the double header and second game of the series 6-5. Game three will start in about thirty minutes. We need to win game 3 to have a chance to split the series. Quote
geezer Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 (edited) SLU gets three and the 2nd inning and Lamar offense does nothing again. SLU leading 3-0 after two. Maybe it is the quality of the SLU pitching but Lamar hitting sucks. Lamar's highest batting average isn't good enough for fourth best hitter compare to SLU batters. Did not include McNuatman or Altman in the analysis as they don't have that many at bats because they haven't started any games before this game to my knowledge. Edited March 27, 2021 by geezer Quote
geezer Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 Lamar fills the bases after the first two batters are out but fail to push a run across in the third. Going to the top of the 4th still 3-0 SLU in the lead. Quote
geezer Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 (edited) SLU gets a run in the top of the fourth. Still no scoring Lamar After four innings SLU leads by four. Edited March 27, 2021 by geezer Quote
geezer Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 Heading to the top of the 8th inning and the score is still 4-0. Quote
geezer Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 SLU gets two more runs in the top of the 8th. One can always hope but that is probably enough to secure a win. Quote
lamarfan360 Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 SLU gets two more runs in the top of the 8th. One can always hope but that is probably enough to secure a win. It's not looking good for the Cardinals. Quote
geezer Posted March 28, 2021 Posted March 28, 2021 Cards get two runs in the bottom of the ninth but not enough to extend the game. Final score 6-2 SLU wins. Final game for this series tomorrow at 1 PM Quote
