Cardinals don't score. Not great.

It’s just bad baseball to not even get the free runner over to 3rd in extras

Crap baseball.

Winn's baseball IQ isn't very high.

What mental mistake did he make?

Go watch the eighth inning.

Do we know if he missed a sign?

It might be time to talk to Oli about defensive replacements in the outfield. Unless the guy is an absolute butcher, it's not worth it.

The sign is if Walker steals third, you run to second. Cost them a run and ultimately the game.

Not sure I agree. I know some people think the trail runner should automatically follow the lead runner, but without a sign, why would Winn be watching Walker? Walker isn’t in his line of sight.

If he missed a sign, then yeah, that’s bad.

Also, I do agree showing bunt on 0-1 was strange.

I feel good about the future. This is the year to lose games like this and learn from them.

Baez looks like he's guessing. He was swinging at that 3rd pitch, a pitch that was too far inside, 100% no matter what. Gave it a huge rip. Then got eaten up by inside fastballs looking for the slider.
