The St. Louis Cardinals have an uncharacteristically bad outing Friday against the San Diego Padres. Co-editor Steve Ungrey examines the outcome.
When Rich Eisen used to appear on ESPN’s Sportscenter telecasts, he would often describe a throwing error as a case of “yoikes…. and away.”
That phrase was made popular by the Daffy Duck cartoon “Robin Hood Daffy.” Fans of the St. Louis Cardinals might wonder if they went Looney Tunes in the fifth inning.
A perfectly good start to the series against the San Diego Padres was ruined when the Cardinals committed three errors in one inning and fell 9-3 Friday night at Petco Park.
