A Thrilling Comeback Victory for the Cardinals!
What a rollercoaster of a game, folks!

Slow Start But Strong Finish
The game kicked off quietly with both teams' lineups getting shut down early on. The first few innings had us Cardinals fans biting our nails, especially after the Angels took a 4-0 lead in the bottom of the 3rd inning, thanks to a homer by Kevin Pillar and a couple of unfortunate plays. But, as they say, it's not how you start but how you finish, and finish strong we did!
Seventh Inning: The Turning Point
The top of the 7th inning was where magic happened

Closing It Out
Our Cardinals didn't take their foot off the pedal after taking the lead. In the top of the 9th, more Angels’ defensive mishaps allowed us to further our lead to 10-5, thanks to a couple of errors on a fielder's choice by Brendan Donovan. Our bullpen, which was rock solid after taking over in the 4th, kept the Angels' bats quiet, closing out the game efficiently.
It's worth mentioning our defense and pitching shutting down any potential Angels' comeback, especially Andrew Kittredge and David Robertson, who kept things tidy in the late innings.
Final Thoughts
Tonight was a testament to the fight and grit of the St. Louis Cardinals. Down early but never out, the team rallied together for a fantastic come-from-behind win. A big shout-out to Ivan Herrera for his clutch hits and Nolan Arenado for that spark with his home run. This win is a morale booster and showcases the depth and resilience of our beloved Cardinals. Let's carry this momentum forward! Go Cards!
