Description
Sonny Gray described the impact of the St. Louis heat after Tuesday's loss to the Marlins as the Cardinals fell 5-0 to the Fish at Busch Stadium. Gray pitches decently, but described the issues he's been having gripping the baseball in the sweltering STL heat. Is this a matter of a player making excuses, or is he actually giving us exactly what we always claim to want from athletes -- CANDOR! Hey, I loved hearing it and I'll explain why I enjoyed Sonny's perspective so much.
Plus, an odd scenario unfolding that made it seem like the Hug Watch could be on for Cardinal lefty Steven Matz. Ultimately, it seems like it all stemmed from a simple coincidence... Or was it?
