Wacha through 8, only allowing 1 run. On line for the loss because THE F*****G CARDINALS REFUSE TO SCORE FOR HIM! I'm beginning to believe guys teammates hate him. They lead the league in scoring and yet in his last 5 starts with 0, 1, 2, 3, 1 runs allowed... 2-2 record.
It looks like Wacha and Stripling will just miss pitching against each other next week. They both have scheduled starts this Sunday, and their teams face each other 5 days later, but the Cardinals will have an off day during that stretch. So unless the Cardinals elect to skip their 5th starter, it looks like Stripling will pitch against the Cards in game 1 and Wacha will pitch against the Dodgers in game 2. The Dodgers and Cardinals will not face each other again until late July.
