Ep. 458: Dakota Hudson Did Dakota Hudson Things; Cardinals offense (and defense?) went stale again
Description
Brenden Schaeffer discusses the Cardinals 4-2 loss to the Pirates in 10 innings from Friday, September 1, 2023.
Dakota Hudson did what he does -- got a lot of ground ball outs and didn't strike out a living soul in seven innings. The bats went back into hiding aside from a mammoth shot to center field by Willson Contreras (hello, Freese's Lawn). The defense also cost the Cardinals in a truly bizarre top of the 10th inning.
Can the Cardinals continue to live and die by the number of pitch-to-contact guys in the pitching staff -- even when they're doing well, it seems like a tricky way to live.
Plus, Adam Wainwright's next start is being pushed back to set up a scenario that honestly feels a little nightmarish on paper, but we can explain to the best of our understanding exactly why it is happening.
