  1. my favorite part was when nolan said “it’s gorman time” and then gormed all over those rockies

  2. “Gorman you just hit a go ahead homer to help give the Cardinals win. What are you going to do now?”

    “We’re going to Disneyland!

  3. The St. Louis Cardinals heroes of the game, per win probability added:

    1. Nolan Arenado, 34% WPA
    2. Nolan Gorman, 28% WPA
    3. Tommy Edman, 15% WPA

    [WPA](https://library.fangraphs.com/misc/wpa/) measures the change in probability of winning a game per plate appearance/batter faced and assigns each player credit based on their contributions during the game. It doesn’t take into account fielding.

    Welcome to the Nolan Show!

  4. The best part of that game was when Gorman said “It’s Gormin time” and then Gormed all over the Rockies

  6. That’s fucking baseball right there. None of that pansy ass dick tugging smile for the camera bullshit. Men puke, men poop on the field, men deliver their newborn baby in the dugout. Fucking hard core dick in the ass butterball foosball fuck it chuck it game time shit. Take it to the showers. Dicks get shoved in places you don’t even remember. We win together we celebrate together. Baseball is back baby.

  7. We DESPERATELY needed this win. Big props to Nolan Gorman and to Helsley for holding it.

  8. I am truly enraged. The Cardinals got Arenado from the Rockies for a song. The Rockies are PAYING the Cardinals to take him. And then he doesn’t even opt out of his WAY undermarket deal to make them add a year or some more cash? What even the fck.

  9. That game took years off my life. all of them. I’m posting this from hell.

    hey but at least we won

  10. I got an all time dopamine rush watching that win. Fantastic game for the boys in red

  11. I thought our pitching was gonna do it to us again and Helsley came back to Earth at the right moment.

  12. That’s some fired up baseball right there. Exactly what I’ve felt has been missing since the first inning against Atlanta. Take Jordan Walker’s reaction to Gorman’s blast, bottle it up and guzzle that shit. Let’s fucking *goooooooo!*

  13. Doomer of the game:

    No-Try-1505
    “The team is terrible so attendance will probably be terrible
    and BDW is no longer gonna have the regional sports network
    money to fall back on, leading him to demand Mo to shred the
    payroll and trade Goldy and Nado. Dark times are coming.”
