2023 Game Three: Cardinals 9, Blue Jays 4

 

ah, hamburgers

Taking the series in St. Louis would have made for a really nice start to the season, wouldn't it (have), but it was not in the cards (wordplay), as newcomer Chris Bassitt pitched what is I am told, and have every reason to believe, the worst game of his major-league career. Bassitt famously has all kinds of pitches, and the Cardinals were dialed in on seemingly all of them to such an extent that you almost hope he was tipping, and isn't just this bad at throwing all of them? I remain optimistic! Please do not mistake me! But seven runs in the first three innings is a little deflating. On to Kansas City, though, which usually goes pretty well (outside of the ALCS [obviously]).
