Disaster struck when #STLCards RF Jordan Walker clearly fouled a ball off his foot, but it wasn't seen by umpires. Thomas Saggese was jogging home, thinking it would be called a foul ball. Instead, the #SFGiants nailed him at home and got Walker at second base to end the rally .

The #STLCards wanted JoJo Romero pitching to #Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani in the 7th and that meant pulling Sonny Gray, who had been dominant. Right on cue, Romero got Ohtani to hit into an inning-ending 4-6-3 double play. Gray's line: 6.1 IP, 8 H, 8 ER, 0 BB, 5 K, 90/63.

Catching in front of the his boyhood idol, Yadier Molina, #STLCards catcher of the future, Jimmy Crooks, just threw out #SFGiants RF Drew Gilbert trying to steal second base. Asked before the game why he loved Molina so much, Crooks said: "He controlled the running game."

#STLCards speedster Victor Scott II, a musician in his free time, was flowing about the perfect bunt he laid down in today's eighth inning: "I bunted that with a pillow." "That bunt was Tempur-pedic." "That thing had Nyquill." "That thing got a full eight hours of sleep."

Don’t be surprised if a position battle develops at first base, where Willson Contreras has moved to from catcher. Alec Burleson is happy to be back at his natural position and he’s moving well there. Having the DH position allows the #STLCards to keep both bats in the lineup.

#STLCards SS Masyn Winn made an incredible play by ranging to his left, but his throw tested Willson Contreras at first. The initial call was out, but the #Dodgers challenged the call. The out call stood after replay. An #SCTop10 type of play for Winn to rob Mookie Betts.

#STLCards RF Jordan Walker drilled this ball 114.3 mph, but it was snagged by #Brewers SS Joey Ortiz, who threw high to first base. It's a two-hit night for the 23-year-old Walker. The 114.3 mph grounder was his sixth hardest-hit ball of the 2025 season.

This is a cool drill that #STLCards infield coach Stubby Clapp uses to familiarize first basemen with short-hop throws. Alec Burleson is getting in some hard-hit reps off Clapp’s fungo bat now.

No, your eyes aren’t deceiving you. #STLCards rising star Jordan Walker — all 6-foot-6 and 259.4 pounds of him — looks huge in the batter’s box. His arms and shoulders are significantly bigger and he’s crushing BP pitches.

Four days after the play, MLB has changed this ruling of a hit to an error on #STLCards SS Masyn Winn. It ended Winn's errorless streak at 49 games and saddled him with a third error. Cal Ripken (1990) and Omar Vizquel (2000) hold the record for fewest errors by a SS with three.

As adeptly pointed out by Katie Woo , #STLCards catcher Pedro Pagés called for this pickoff play by wiggling his catcher's mitt. Sonny Gray picked up on that and then picked #Brewers third baseman and Washington University product Caleb Durbin off second base.
