GDT 5/14/25 St. Louis Cardinals (Gray, S) @ Philadelphia Phillies (Nola, A)

[LoneStarPhan]

Nola gets the final out of the third. 61 pitches in 3 innings.

Gray starts the third having thrown 55 over the first two innings.

I hope the offense has some life left.

Just when I thought I wasn't gonna need to watch the second half of this game.

Guess Nola should have picked the day game.

[zambonir]

Sending Nola out for this inning was real "sticking with your closer in the 9th" managing.

[Patchmk88]

Nola trying to make the homerun derby as a pitcher.

[EastFallowfield]

Nola had the leadoff hitter struck out if you believe the box, and now the 3rd hitter too.

Franzke says it's time to lose the box on the screen and elsewhere, or have the automatic strike zone, cause of how frustrating it is to see pitches called strikes everywhere but on the field.

[kmc1019]

Boggles my mind that Nola is still in the game. I heard an interview with Thompson earlier today, and he seemed excited to use as many relievers as possible since they were all well rested and have another day off tomorrow. He specifically called out Walker and Ross as guys he hoped to use. Oh well.....

[donaldorc]

Wants to make sure Nola gets in his 90 pitches.
