After last night’s bullpen meltdown, Cardinal fans were hoping that Adam Wainwright would continue with a start like his last one on September 2nd against the Giants. Any time the offense scores 10 runs, you would typically expect any analysis to focus on the offense. While it is true that every lineup regular except Paul Goldschmidt got a hit tonight—Wainwright even helped himself out with a single and double—the story is really about Wainwright’s performance. Until tonight, Wainwright had not made back-to-back starts of 7 IP or more since a three-start stretch he had in July of 2016!
