Mozeliak, quoted on MLB.com, said: "We really do feel like there's something left in that tank.
To go past Haines would require an upturn in Wainwright's former, after he endured an 11-12 win-loss record in 2022.Ĭardinals president John Mozeliak was glad to agree a deal to keep Wainwright on for one more year. An early target will be to pass 200 wins, and then Wainwright will be looking to go second on the team's all-time list among pitchers, with Jesse Haines currently occupying that position with 210 wins. Wainwright has 195 career wins and 117 losses. Let me go out and perform and not freak out about it every single day, and let's see what happens."
"Long story short: Yes, this will be the last one. "My main focus of playing next year is to go out and win and help this team win. "If I tell you it's the last one, then I've got to go through a bunch of stuff. "I have so many distractions as it is, and I don't need any more," said Wainwright. Wainwright wants to go out on a high, so he is playing on with that in mind, but wary of being caught up in hoopla. He struggled in the team's closing regular season games and cited a "dead arm", saying he was feeling "no explosiveness" when pitching. The 41-year-old pitcher, who made his debut for the team in 2005, will be entering a 19th season with the Cardinals and looking to make up for a disappointing end to the 2022 campaign. And all of a sudden, big things happen."Īdam Wainwright is returning to the St Louis Cardinals for one last hurrah in 2023 but says he wants no fuss to surround his farewell season. "We've talked about doing the little things, just get on base, and that's what you saw. "It's a credit to our players not quitting," said manager Scott Servais. While heartbreaking for the Blue Jays, the win continued the Mariners' Cinderella story, bringing playoff baseball back home to Seattle for the first time since 2001.Ī 21-year postseason drought had been the longest such active run in any of the four major American sports. It sucks, but at the end, it's baseball, and we have to eat it, go home, think about it and get ready for next year." "Every little thing that happened in the game, it's just incredible the way it happened.
"Nothing goes through my mind," Hernandez said. Hernandez is only the third Blue Jay to hit two homers in a single postseason game, although all three examples have now come in defeats that saw Toronto eliminated (also Jose Bautista vs the Kansas City Royals in the 2015 ALCS, Danny Jansen vs the Tampa Bay Rays in the 2020 Wild Card). The interim Blue Jays manager gathered his thoughts more effectively than Teoscar Hernandez, whose two home runs proved in vain. "Sometimes when you think you have an advantage, you don't win." "Baseball sucks sometimes, and this group will be back in the exact same spot very, very soon," Schneider said. The Blue Jays led 8-1 at the end of the fifth inning, with Seattle needing to become just the third team to overturn a seven-run deficit in a postseason game.īut that was exactly what they did, with four runs in each of the sixth and eighth innings to win 10-9 and advance to the ALDS.

Toronto, the fourth seed in the American League, had lost their Wild Card opener at home to the Mariners on Friday but appeared on course to level the series the following day. The Toronto Blue Jays were still in shock as John Schneider and his players sought to reflect on a remarkable defeat to the Seattle Mariners that ended their season.
