Cardinals Take Game One, Drop Nightcap vs Yankees

Today was definitely a weird day of baseball. The Cardinals took the first game of the doubleheader, busting out for 11 runs against the Bronx Bombers. Paul Goldschmidt hit a home run to put them ahead 3-0 and Nolan Gorman even supplied some power.

Jack Flaherty looked like his old self, throwing six shutout innings and earning his fifth win of the year. Then the rain came, multiple times. I heard Chip and Brad say on the Bally broadcast that it was because of MLB rules that the rest of the first game wasn’t waved off.

Apparently, they would have had to postpone the nightcap as well.
