17-Run Outburst Without A Homer Was MLB Rarity; Michael Wacha Benefits Again; Paul DeJong: The Walking Man; Yadier Molina Receives Roberto Cleemente Award

Four of the Cardinals’ last seven wins before Friday night had come without their hitting a home run, which is unusual enough in this age of launch angles and exit velocities. But to have 17 runs without a homer on Thursday marked not only the first time the Cardinals had scored that many runs without a four-bagger since 2008 (18 vs. Atlanta) but it was the first time the majors in more than seven years, or since the Colorado Rockies had 17 without a homer against San Francisco at spacious Coors Field in Denver.

My name's attached to it. Nothing to walk out of here with my head high about." #STLCards pic.twitter.com/IL3V3rKi2V

When Did Cardinals Pitchers Last Have Such Great Back-To-Back Starts?

The Cardinals bullpen in 2018 has been pretty bad. We don't want to name names, but as a collective group they rank in the bottom third of the NL in fWAR, ERA, FIP, xFIP, and a lot of other things. Luckily for all involved, they got a much needed reprieve the last two games and were only needed to get four outs. And during that time, one of their relievers threw a ball over 105 mph. So while short on WAR, they are not a unit bereft of entertainment.
