[QUOTE="pruman91, post: 1770732, member: 3916"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.stltoday.com/sports/baseball/professional/cardinals-bullpen-stars-in-beginning-middle-and-end-of-6-3-win-over-padres/article_bdf3cd47-46e3-52a4-a9a4-ab411d1ebae7.html[/URL] [URL='https://www.stltoday.com/users/profile/rhummel']Rick Hummel[/URL] In manager Oliver Marmol’s perfect world, left-hander Patrick “Packy” Naughton and Andre Pallante, the rookie relievers who were the first two hurlers for the Cardinals in Monday afternoon’s “bullpen game,” would have pitched the first six innings. The final three would belong to late-inning stalwarts Giovanny Gallegos, Genesis Cabrera and Ryan Helsley. “In an ideal world, it would have been three and three (for both Naughton and Pallante),” said Marmol. Marmol got close, at a total of 5 2/3 innings. But that was enough as the aforementioned five pitchers stopped the San Diego Padres 6-3 before 42,140 fans at Busch Stadium. Rookie Nolan Gorman, who had three hits and a walk, bashed a two-run homer. So did Paul Goldschmidt, who extended his hitting streak to 21 games with his two-run shot in the seventh when the lead had been just one run. Gorman’s second single had preceded Goldschmidt’s drive off reliever Steven Wilson. The Cardinals went to six games over .500 for the fourth time this season and their pitchers struck out a season-high 13 batters. Naughton, a Cincinnati draft pick who had been with the Los Angeles Angels before the Cardinals acquired him on waivers this spring, just had been recalled from Class AAA Memphis. He allowed two hits and one run over the first 2 1/3 innings, fanning four. But at that point, the Padres’ lineup was back at the top and Marmol said he did not want Naughton to try to navigate it again. [/QUOTE]
