Man, Lange carved up Willson pretty good there.

[gehringer_2]

one

[gehringer_2]

got one back from the ump there.

[chasfh]

Wow, the umpire had to think about strike two!

[Dtrain72]

Lol, ok forget robot umps!

[chasfh]

Wow made Arenado wave at strike three in the dirt. Nasty.

[Dtrain72]

This is hillarious...and st louis legit has a gripe, those pitches are legit balls

We got another low strike call break, but let’s face it, this Junior guy is just **** behind the plate.

[gehringer_2]

The ump is probably right on these calls. A curve is falling rapidly as it crosses the plate. That fact that the catcher catches it below the box doesn't  mean it's not a strike.

Wow....

On one hand, the calls are very questionable.

On the other hand, angry Cardinal tears give me life

[chasfh]

Holy Toledo, what a gutsy effort tonight by both Englert and Lange, and after giving up a leadoff double he strikes out the side. Just amazing.

[Dtrain72]

 I really believe the lowkey rumblimgs of robot umps are actually making the human umps worse.   The strike zone is worse than ever for some reason...these guys are pushing imo

[Hongbit]

Great win.  Fun last inning.

[gehringer_2]

you've got to be kidding me. Team can't score 70% of the league average runs but they have two 4 game winning streaks in 31 games. go figure.

100%.  A ball can pass through a 3 dimensional strike zone and still hit the catcher in the shoes.

Great win.

Ump wasn't great, but I like the way he handled the argument. Just stood there and let dude say his piece.

He looked like he actually laughing to himself as he turned back toward the plate after the ejection.

[Tigermojo]

The other teams are trying to out tank is.

[mtutiger]

It's been a while since a Tiger game felt that adrenaline filled... the big crowd in St Louis no doubt is a factor

[Dtrain72]

This team is....................fun.................to watch
