May’s Return, bullpen Struggles, and a Loss | St. Louis Cardinals News
Description
Dustin May returned to the mound for the Cardinals, pitching four and two-thirds innings and leaving with a two-run lead — a promising sign of recovery after recent injury setbacks — but fell short of the pitch count needed for the win. With a doubleheader looming and bullpen depth thin, manager Oliver Marmol was forced to rely on unfamiliar arms, who couldn’t hold the lead as the Cardinals lost 4-3. Despite the loss, May’s outing was a major step forward, with no setbacks and even a clean first inning — something he hadn’t felt confident about after recent struggles. The team is carefully managing their pitching staff through a busy stretch, balancing immediate needs with long-term health ahead of the All-Star break.
