Cardinals take Spring Training Opener against Mets
The Cardinals kicked off the 2024 Spring Training season with a 5-3 win over the Mets. The Cardinals scored 5 runs in the 2nd inning with RBIs by Dylan Carlson and Paul Goldschmidt. The inning was capped off with a Nolan Gorman 3 run homerun for his first of the Spring.
Sonny Gray would work an inning with a strikeout and the pitching staff seemed solid, until Kenyan Middleton gave up a 3 run homerun to Brandon Nimmo in the 8th to make things interesting. Ryan Helsley would allow a hit in the 9th, but ultimately came away with the save.
The Cardinals will take on the Marlins tomorrow with Kyle Gibson getting the start on the mound.
