game
I... didn't see this game. I tried. My TV and internet were both out. I was going to make a joke about putting as much effort into this recap as the Cardinal offense did in this game, but that is mean. I am sure they are trying really hard.
Miss you, Matt Holliday.
So, I asked Twitter to help me out. Without further ado, here is your recap tonight:
Got an idea. Submit to me your Twitter recaps of the game, please. Haikus accepted.

@lil_scooter93 The Redbirds offense continued recent struggles. Wacha was fine though.

Stray thoughts:
- The Cardinals are still in first place!
- At least Jason Heyward looks good.
- Tommy Pham has been freed!
- Have a happy and safe Fourth of July!
