Ep. 614: Double Trouble — Cardinals Swept By Royals In Doubleheader Despite Best-Laid Pitching Plans
Description
Brenden Schaeffer discusses a bitter pill for the Cardinals to swallow as they were swept Wednesday at Busch in the two-game series and doubleheader against the Royals.
The pitching plan for the Cards honestly made sense on paper, but they just did not quite get enough from their bullpen, or really their offense, to make it sing like they wanted.
The STL bullpen that has been so good had a bumpier day than usual. Neither starter for the Cardinals was amazing, though both kept the team in the ballgame.
It was kind of a weird series loss, and one that feels uncharacteristic to the way the 2024 Cardinals have played for the most part this year. So we did our best to unpack and explain some of what we saw Wednesday.
Plus, Down on the Farm returns with some potential heinous news regarding Tommy Edman... Ugh.
