Think Kelly was about done when he got lifted. But we can all agree that yanking Craig was insane.

#Cardinals infielder Skip Schumaker talks about whether he could've reached 2nd base

"I thought he trapped it," Schumaker said of his 17th-inning single to center field that skittered away from CF Andrew McCutchen. Schumaker reached first, but had he broke for second he may have been in position to score. He also could have been thrown out by McCutchen, who recovered the ball quickly. "In hindsight it would have been nice to be on second base right there. But I thought he caught it. I thought he trapped it. I didn’t know where the ball is. I thought it was in his glove. I would have been thrown out at second."

I understand the frustration with Matheny.

Also, Freese and Holliday went a combined 0 for 15 with 4 strikeouts and 1 walk. Plenty of opportunities, and nothing. Plenty of blame to go around here.

Via @cantpredictball, this was the longest of all of the Cardinals vs Pirates games in history. Longer than the other 2,185 games between them.

Freese is eventually going to burn through all of last year's good will. He takes a lot of bad ABs, and he looks rather nonchalant about it. He's going to wear on the guys who spent years complaining about J.D. Drew.

The only way Freese burns through all of last season's good will is if he kills someone.

Would I like to see them doing better this year? You bet.

Do I think they could/should be doing better? Absolutely.

But 2011 will always be there. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience, not just for Cards fans, but for Freese himself.

Someone well liked. He can knock off a few ugly people and no one would care.

I think this game irritates me more the more I think about it. 19 innings. 9 runs in 37 innings against the Pirates this weekend.

Did any of you stick around for the post game presser? Not that I would blame you if you didn't, but I was wondering if any of the scribes bothered to ask Matheny about the Craig situation and his response. I'll hang up and listen thanks.
