Miles Mikolas has been unbeatable this season Antworten

Cardinals score him a couple of runs.He’s 16-0 when getting at least two runs of support http://www.rockiesfanproshop.com/authentic-chad-bettis-jersey , a big asset for the Cardinals as they stay in the postseason hunt.“I’ve been fortunate enough that when I’ve pitched, we’ve had great offense and we’ve put up runs and played great defense and everything has just come together,” Mikolas said. “It’s been a great season.”Kolten Wong hit the first of four St. Louis homers, Mikolas won his third straight start and the Cardinals beat the NL East-leading Atlanta Braves 11-6 on Monday night to give their playoff push another boost.St. Louis has 35 victories since the All-Star break, most in the National League, and has won two straight after losing four in a row. The Cardinals, who also got homers from Paul DeJong, Harrison Bader and Yadier Molina, are a half-game ahead of Colorado for the second NL wild card.The Braves took a third consecutive loss after winning a season-best six straight games. They remained 6½ games up in the division following Philadelphia’s loss to the Mets, which reduced Atlanta’s magic number to seven as the Braves try to clinch their first NL East title in five years.Mike Foltynewicz (11-10) walked three of the first five batters he faced — one intentionally — and hit Yadier Molina with a pitch before Wong’s opposite-field, two-run single gave St. Louis a 3-0 lead in the first.Atlanta pitchers have issued 32 walks over the last four games, all at home, where they are 38-37 and have dropped 13 of their last 17.“It just goes down to early on — the walks, the walks, the walks — they all score,” Braves manager Brian Snitker said. “That’s the big thing.”Mikolas (16-4) allowed four hits, two runs and one walk while striking out six in five innings. The right-hander http://www.rockiesfanproshop.com/authentic-chad-bettis-jersey , who leads the NL in fewest walks per nine innings, improved to 9-0 in 15 road starts.“They fouled off some good pitches, but we played great defense, and I was able to get out of the jams when I was in a sticky situation,” he said.After Freddie Freeman’s 22nd homer made it a one-run game in the third, the Cardinals went up 4-2 in the fourth on Wong’s ninth homer and 6-2 in the fifth on DeJong’s 18th homer and Marcell Ozuna’s RBI double. St. Louis improved to an NL-best 40-19 when hitting a road homer.Foltynewicz allowed five hits, six runs and four walks with two strikeouts in 4 2/3 innings. Coming off a complete-game victory at San Francisco, Foltynewicz had gone 4-2 with a 1.84 ERA in his last eight starts, but he couldn’t overcome a lack of control.Nick Markakis drove in a run with his NL-leading 42nd double, coming against Dakota Hudson in the seventh, to pull the Braves to 6-5. But then Jesse Biddle gave up a pair of two-out walks in the eighth, and Bader, a defensive replacement in the seventh, hit a three-run homer to put St. Louis up 9-5.The Braves had a chance to do more damage in the bottom of the inning against Carlos Martinez after Ronald Acuna Jr.’s RBI single cut the lead to 9-6, but Martinez struck out Freeman with the bases loaded.Freeman slammed his bat down in disgust.“Big moment, obviously, bases loaded and a three-run game at that moment Wade Davis Jersey ,” St. Louis manager Mike Shildt said. “He made a money pitch.”Molina hit his 18th homer, a two-run shot off Arodys Vizcaino, in the ninth.BAD MOVESCardinals CF Yairo Munoz made two errors in the sixth that let Atlanta cut the lead to 6-4. He dropped the ball after picking up Ender Inciarte’s single, allowing Inciarte to advance to second and Johan Camargo to third. Munoz made a throwing error to third on Tyler Flowers‘ single, allowing both runners to score.TRAINER’S ROOMCardinals: Shildt said RHP Bud Norris wasn’t available because of irritated skin on his right middle finger. Norris left Sunday night’s win over the Dodgers after walking the only batter he faced.Braves: Camargo, the team’s everyday third baseman, went 1 for 5 in his return to the lineup after missing the past four games with left groin tightness.UP NEXTCardinals: LHP Austin Gomber (5-1, 3.78 ERA) will make his first career start against Atlanta on Tuesday. Gomber allowed seven runs and nine hits in his last start, lasting three innings in a 9-7 loss to the Dodgers.Braves: RHP Anibal Sanchez (6-5, 3.01 ERA) seeks his first victory since Aug. 3, a span of eight starts in which he’s 1-1 with a 3.02 ERA. The former Orioles closer was traded to the Bronx in July and will be sticking around there a little while longer."Another former Oriole has found a home in this winter’s free agent market. Former Orioles closer Zach Britton, who was traded to the Yankees in July, is headed back to the Bronx for another contract that could go for anywhere from two to four years. ESPN’s Jeff Passan was the first to report a completed deal - pending physical, of course.The variable length of the contract is a result of both the player and team having options on the contract. After two years, the Yankees must decide whether or not they want to exercise a fourth year option on the contract. If they do not do so, then Britton will have the option to void the third year of the contract and become a free agent. Jon Heyman of Fancred reported on the unusual structure of the contract.All of that adds up to a contract that will be said to have three years and $39 million guaranteed. That’s $13 million per season, with the fourth year option carrying a $14 million price tag if it is exercised.With the Orioles being about as far away from success as you can get http://www.rockiesfanproshop.com/authentic-chad-bettis-jersey , they were never going to sign Britton again for the same reason they had to trade him in July. When you’re bad, your closer doesn’t really matter that much. So they cashed in on two-plus months of Britton to receive pitching prospects Dillon Tate, Josh Rogers, and Cody Carroll in the July 24 trade.It’s always going to be a bitter thing to see a favorite Oriole donning pinstripes. We all have our own reason for this. Mine, of course, is Jeffrey Maier. But it’s easy to cheer for Britton managing to get his free agent payday even though he’s battled injuries over the last two seasons that seem to have taken him far away from the elite performance he had from 2014-16.That 0.54 ERA in 2016 when he went 47-for-47 in save opportunities was something else. I’ve never seen anything like it before and don’t expect to see anything like it again. Hitters had a .430 OPS against him for the entire season. Him locking down games is a big reason why that team was able to overcome a horrible starting rotation to earn a wild card spot.The 2018 season was much less of a success for Britton. That started with the Achilles injury that he suffered in December 2017, an injury that kept Britton out of games until June 12. From his first game back, when he walked three batters in a scoreless inning, the idea that this wasn’t going to be the 2016 Zach Britton seemed to be apparent. As Britton went on to post mediocre strikeout numbers with a disappointing walk rate and a ballooning home run rate, there wasn’t much to change that impression.Now it’s the Yankees task to figure out whether they can get that amazing level of performance back from the 31-year-old lefty. They have the luxury of not even needing to throw Britton into the ninth inning, since they already have Aroldis Chapman lined up there, and probably strikeout machine Dellin Betances for the eighth inning as well. They might have just guaranteed $39 million to a seventh inning guy they’re not even all that sure will work out.The Orioles will presumably take a lead into the seventh, eighth, or ninth innings at some point in 2019. Who pitches any of those innings and whether they can hold the lead, I guess we’ll find out. It won’t be Britton. It was never going to be Britton. May he be the most successful player on an inexplicably and hilariously horrible series of Yankees teams over the next four seasons.
