3) Mikolas Talkin’ Baseball @ Game:

“You’ve got guys in the dugout getting goosebumps. It’s such a special career, and to see him keep doing it, it’s incredible,” said Mikolas after Pujols hit career regular-season home runs Nos. 688 and 689 on Sunday in the Cardinals’ 6-3 win over the rival Brewers at Busch Stadium, improving the team’s record to 1 1/2 games above the Brewers at the top of the NL Central. “That’s how you get into the Hall of Fame. He doesn’t take anything for granted. Even in his last season, he’s always trying to get better. He’s not coasting into the Hall of Fame. He’s going to kick down that door and have a nice plaque up in there somewhere.”

WHAT HAPPENED? MIL vs STL 8/14/22~

With a slim a 1/2 lead in NL Central Division going into this contest, our game plan was to stay atop the division. Sunday’s 6-3W puts us 1.5 ahead of MIL in the NL Central Division and victory took the series. Woo hoo!

When game started Sunday, MIL took quick two-run lead by a Renfro homer (Sat night’s hero). After that “mistake” SP RHP Miles Mikolas “Lizard King” was “Nails!”

🙂 CLICK2CATCH! BASEBALL FUN! & watch Mikolas earn & talkin’ to MLB Network his “Lizard King” nickname! You’re right – you’ve seen this before, but it really never gets old, does it. FUN!

STL offense answered second inning with an Albert Pujols loooong solo homer into Big Mac Land that put us on the board. Thanks Albert! Free Big Macs for every fan sitting in that section!

8th INNING: Two-all tie till BIG inning: Dylan Carlson breaks a 0-for-8 with a solo shot & then #5 hits his second homer of the game – a 3-run bomb! #5 loves to hit at Busch — he’s back where he belongs. Duh!
