St. Louis Cardinals: Base path problems still plague the Birds

The St. Louis Cardinals seem to be turning things around. Will this stick? Perhaps it will should the team continue to manufacture offense, control their defense, and put up fundamentally strong pitching. Aren’t these the standard corner stones of baseball?

While many things seem to be improving, the St. Louis Cardinals continue to make boneheaded base running mistakes. The most damaging of these being when players such as Matt Carpenter or Stephen Piscotty allow themselves to be picked off of a base– something that happened far too frequently in the Brewers series.
