Pretty sure the last 6 games were all lost after giving up the lead after 6 innings.

I can understand pulling the pitcher after 6 when you are BEHIND and have a chance for a big inning, but have never in my life seen the starter pulled when they already had the lead??

The bullpen has been a problem all year, why do you bring them in the game even earlier??

My oldest wanted to watch the NBA playoffs. Said it was better than watching the Cardinals lose. I can't stand the NBA, so I told him if the Cards gave up the lead, we'd switch it. Cecil was pitching with a 4-1 lead and runners at 1st and 2nd when I made my statement.

It took Cecil about 8 pitches before I had to change the channel...
