It wasn’t looking good for a while, but the St. Louis Cardinals split a four-game series with the Philadelphia Phillies.
The Cardinals had a frustrating series but managed to take two of four from the Phillies.
The Cardinals lost on Friday 2-0. They lost Saturday 1-0. The Cardinals won Sunday 4-3, and won on Monday 6-1.
The Cardinals are now 47-42 on the season and take on the Los Angeles Dodgers at Busch on Tuesday – Thursday. The Cardinals take on their division rival Cincinnati Reds Friday – Sunday at Busch, closing out the first half of the season prior to the All-Star Break.
Things should be exciting as the Cardinals round out the first half of their 2022 campaign.
Let’s take a look at some of the shining moments in the Cardinals series with the Phillies.
Adam Wainwright pitches well despite loss
As Bally Sports Midwest broadcaster Jimmy Edmonds said he told Wainwright, but for two pitches, Wainwright pitched an absolute masterpiece. Wainwright is now 6-7 on the season after pitching a complete game Friday. He gave up five hits and two home runs to Alec Bohm. He did induce four swings and misses.
