2 in MLB history and only seven from tying Mickey Lolich and Bill Freehan (Detroit) and their 324 starts as a tandem. He hooked up with Waino for their 317th start as a pitcher-catcher battery – now No. He teamed with his buddy Waino to create another shutout. Yadi threw out a runner trying to steal a base. Yadier Molina, Still Matters: He came back for Tuesday’s game after being on the IL since June 17 and nothing really changed. 30 but other numbers mean more: His 130 innings pitched this season, sixth-most in the majors, and a 3.11 ERA that puts him 24th among 65 qualifying MLB starting pitchers. In his last two starts, against the Blue Jays and Cubs, Wainwright has been dinged for only one earned run, has struck out 12, and hasn’t walked a soul.

Louis Cardinals center fielder Dylan Carlson (3) is congratulated by teammates after hitting a two run home run against the Chicago Cubs during the fifth inning at Busch Stadium. One more note: Harrison Bader was minus 2 in defensive runs saved for St. Several of the leading center fielders have logged 800+ innings. All center fielders ahead of him on the runs-saved leaderboard have played more innings than Carlson. But the four defensive runs saved are especially impressive because Carlson has played only 280 innings in CF. Carlson has 4 defensive runs saved in center field, which ties him for 8th at the position in MLB. I’m interested in seeing how the Cardinals’ strong and public belief in Carlson will impact his confidence and ease any stress that he’s been fielding. (C) “DC” had a perfectly timed restart Tuesday by drilling a two-run homer and making a diving catch in the win over the Chicago Cubs. (B) By trading Harrison Bader to the Yankees, the front office made it clear that Carlson, 23, is their center fielder of the present and the future. Dylan Carlson, New Era: Two things, at least, should have him pumped up right now: (A) Cardinals management is 100 percent committed to him and proved that by erasing his name from every stupid trade rumor.
