Marmol defends costly bullpen decision, claims Cardinals team more frustrated than fans ST. LOUIS - Just when it looked like the St. Louis Cardinals might escape with a win, a lengthy stretch of losing continues. The St. Louis Cardinals suffered their fifth straight defeat Wednesday night, dropping 11 of their last 13 contests. They now carry the National League's worst record (10-21) a little more than a month into the season. Wednesday's loss came a little more unusually than most for the Cardinals up to this point. Unlike many teams around the league, St. Louis made some noise against Angels phenom Shohei Ohtani, scoring four times in five innings. RELATED - Nootbaar reunites with Ohtani before highly-anticipated St. Louis start The Cardinals brought a 4-3 lead into the ninth inning. Before that, leading closer candidate Ryan Helsley entered the game in the seventh inning to escape a big jam and preserve a one-run lead. He also tossed one more clean inning, picking up four key late-game outs on just 10 pitches. Helsley worked efficiently in just his second outing...
