# SONNY GRAY APOLOGY FORM
🔘 r/Cardinals convinced me he was done
🔘 I only look at ERA in a guy’s last 6 games
🔘 I was jealous of Sonny
🔘 I didn’t watch the actual games
🔘 I don’t know baseball
🔘 Mercury was in retrograde
🔘 I will hereby respect Sonny Gray and I will NOT talk down the current and future Cardinals ace
**Your apology needs to be as loud as your disrespect was**
Oliver Marmol got into that dugout, remained professional, and did not commit any inappropriate sexual acts towards any of the players.
He got the boys going with his honesty and legitimate leadership.
Winner winner we take those ALL day chicken dinner
Masyn with the great play, Cardinals WINN!
I liked the part where Ryan Ludwick directly contributed to a 2024 Cardinals win
that ball couldn’t have deflected off helsley any more perfect
That FuckKroenke guy punching the air so hard rn. Bro has the “woah woah woah” copy pasta LOCKED and ready to go if this team drops below 500. Waiting to bust out the burner ASAP ASAP
# [WINNER!!!!!!](https://twitter.com/cardinalsgifs/status/1681131016394788865)
now is the time to get a little streak going! doesn’t need to be big. 4 or 5 games will do. but the Ws need to start stringing together
Tommy Pham wants us to make the playoffs and I hope he gets a chance to.
I didn’t see how close it actually was, but did the Rays consider challenging that final out?
This was an extremely fun game!!!! That’s my ball club!!!!!!!
There are not a lot of things that can make me happier than a Victor Scott home run. A win is one of them though.
Cardiac Ryan Helsley does it again!
wow anyone else throwing would have taken as much time to wind up as it did for ball to get to first
I miss 2022 Helsley that didn’t feel the need to give the opposition a sporting chance.
Not gonna lie, I think I pooped my pants a little on that comebacker. Thank goodness we got Robocop GoGo Gadget Rocket Arm at shortstop
WE HAVE WON A SERIES OPENER
I’m glad it was Masyn that got the deflection. His arm saved us there!
League clearly has something on Helsley’s slider though. I’m hoping I can find some footage to compare his pitches. Does anyone know how to watch that whole inning again? I don’t have MLBtv
We can’t keep treading water let’s build on this. Let’s sweep them. Let’s win 10 in a row. Let’s never lose again.
Man, what are we gonna do with hells bells? His whip is unsustainable. Just getting lucky at this point…
VS2 is such a humble guy, hard not to like
i feel like 4-3 is our most common score when we win games.
VSII’s homerun was the highlight of this game, this is a hill I’ll die on.
I can’t believe Walls couldn’t beat that out. Took forever for that ball to get to Winn
Helsley vengeance. Although he still just can’t make it easy.
