It’s the American Ball Park that also claims to be Great.
Adam Wainwright knows it by a different name.
“The Devil’s Lair,” he said. “There’s a curse on this place, a deadly curse.”
Burned but not beaten Tuesday night at the ballpark that has soured into a nemesis, Wainwright saw his ERA in Cincinnati rise even as the Cardinals kept the Reds down for an 8-5 victory. The right-hander allowed four doubles and a home run, and he still left with the lead to claim his 197th career victory — and his first against the Reds since 2019.
