McGreevy’s Birthday Win Ends Streak | St. Louis Cardinals News

Michael McGreevy delivered a birthday gem, tossing six and one-third innings of stellar stuff—just one run, six strikeouts, one walk—to lead the Cardinals to a 5-1 win over the Brewers. The victory snapped a four-game skid and a seven-game losing streak against Milwaukee, and it came on his 26th birthday, continuing a wild 13-game winning streak for Cardinals starters who pitch on their actual birthday. McGreevy even survived a scary fifth-inning collision with a hard-hit ball, finishing the inning with a crucial out. Originally moved to his birthday to rest before the All-Star break, his performance was nothing short of clutch—retiring 15 straight batters after escaping a bases-loaded jam in the first. This win wasn’t just a spark; it was a perfect storm of resilience, timing, and tradition. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
