Hunter Dobbins first start (in the rotations, second of the season) didn't start off so well as he allowed 2/3 of the Mets daily allotment of home runs, but the Cardinals offense started off staying strong as they put up three homers of their home to tie things up and eventually take an early lead.

And then Juan Soto happened.

Gorman had another rough day, at the plate, with back to back strikeouts, while Burleson stayed hot and Jimmy Crooks went yard.

St. Louis Cardinals vs Cincinnati Reds recap: the Cardinals win 5-3 and complete the SWEEP behind a chaotic 8th inning rally built on pure small ball pressure.

Chris Pelikan and Luke Slabaugh break down how the Cardinals manufactured runs late with two singles, a walk, and multiple Reds bullpen errors that completely flipped a 3-2 game. Victor Scott’s sacrifice bunt turned into a game-changing E1 that gave the Cardinals the lead—and Busch Stadium felt it immediately.

We also dive into:

Bryan Torres hitting his second career home run in a key 5th inning rally

Michael McGreevy delivering his second straight quality start, allowing just two solo home runs

How the Cardinals used speed, execution, and pressure to force mistakes

Why this 5-3 win and series sweep over the Reds feels like a turning point

If you watched that 8th inning, you know exactly what that felt like. This is Cardinals baseball at its best.

Lars Nootbaar is BACK! Noot delivers the go-ahead 2-run homer in the 8th to lift the St. Louis Cardinals past the Cincinnati Reds 6-5. Luke Slabaugh and Ethan Hannaford bring the energy on Cards Central 365 with a fan-first breakdown of a game that had everything: frustration, missed chances, and a late-game explosion.

The Cardinals went 4-for-10 with RISP but stranded 7 runners, and none bigger than the bases-loaded, no-out disaster in the 6th. Down one run, Oli Marmol plays the matchups, but Jimmy Crooks rolls into a double play that Marmol cannot challenge, and the rally dies. That inning felt like the game… until Noot changed it.

Matthew Liberatore started strong, then completely lost feel late—fastball command vanished, secondaries missed spots. He allows all 5 Reds runs (3 earned), and it’s another example of how quickly things can unravel the third time through.

Jordan Walker launched his 16th homer (career-high tying), the only extra-base hit before Nootbaar flipped the night with one swing.

And give the bullpen its due: 4.2 scoreless innings. That’s how you survive a night where you leave runs all over the field.

This is Cardinals baseball right now: tense, but alive. And today, Nootbaar delivered the moment.

On this episode:

Nootbaar’s return and clutch go-ahead HR

The 6th inning collapse with bases loaded, no outs

Marmol’s matchup decisions under the microscope

Liberatore’s middle-inning command issues

Bullpen dominance keeps hope alive
