St. Louis Cardinals play against San Francisco Giants in St. Louis heat - A series preview

Back in 2012 I went to a Cardinals game in St. Louis. They were playing the Los Angeles Dodgers. It was a hot July day — the game time temperature at 7:15pm CDT was 103 degrees Fahrenheit. It was a classic Adam Wainwright versus Clayton Kershaw duel. Waino was in his first year back from Tommy John and had struggled a bit in the season, but he was looking more and more like his old self. Kershaw was in the height of his prime — probably the best pitcher in the league at the time. He was cruising, until he wasn’t.
