ST. LOUIS - The St. Louis Cardinals appear they will once again be without second baseman Kolten Wong, after he left Wednesday’s game early due to tightness in his right forearm. “He was favoring it,” said Mike Matheny afterwards. “Yeah, he couldn’t really throw. I think it happened on his check swing, so we’re going to have him really looked at closely and gotta figure out what we’re dealing with here and deciding how long that’s going to take.” Less than two weeks ago (May 27 - June 6th), Wong was on the disabled list with a strained left elbow. Raising his batting average to .301, Wong had an RBI double and strikeout on the night before he was replaced by Greg Garcia in the top of the 6th Continue to Article

Corey Knebel leads all big league relievers in strikeouts and is a prime reason Milwaukee leads the National League Central heading into Thursday's series finale with the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium. Knebel registered his second four-out save Wednesday night in a 7-6 win, punctuating it with a whiff of Dexter Fowler that was his 59th in 33 1/3 innings this year. Continue to Article

The St. Louis Cardinals’ decision to have Lance Berkman speak at its upcoming “Christian Day” has drawn ire from one local LGBT group.

Joe Holleman of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that the Cardinals have received criticism, including from LGBTQ avocates, for inviting former slugger Lance Berkman to “Christian Day” at Busch Stadium, scheduled for July 30. In September 2015, Berkman foolishly advocated against public accommodations for transgender people to use public bathrooms. In an ad in which he appeared, Berkman referred to transgender people as “troubled men.” He fearmongered, suggesting that transgender people would violate women’s privacy and lead to violence.
