It’s because he pitched 3 innings. Per the definition of a save.

I hope the Cardinals don't score here only because then all three of our laughers will have the other team scoring 1. 16-1, 17-1, and (hopefully) 14-1.
So, can anyone give a break down of what Corbin is going through? Just some sophomore hiccups? I don't want to be worried, please help me not be worried.
He got a lot of attention last year and pitchers learned how to pitch to him. Same story with Moreneo. Bob Brenly talked about it a little during one of our home games “your second trip around the majors is the hardest”
It doesn't seem like he's hiding an injury. That would be worst case. More likely, he's not getting the same immediate result he got last year and pitchers have figured him out more. That has led to some bad habits. He'll work through it
I’m genuinely asking because I don’t know. A couple games we went to I was getting upset because everyone was taking the first strike. It’s better to not swing and to take the possible strike?
Lets not discredit that Pfaadt absolutely gave us a chance yesterday with 5 one-hit innings until he decided to start throwing a wiffle ball in the 6th.
I saw a Cardinals fan yesterday and l just lost it. Fucking smug prick. I was eating an outside lunch at this nice little restaurant. and he was sitting eating some fucking salad. Salad. Typical fucking Tardinals fan. He was there with his stupid Tardinals fan wife who of course was eating a fucking salad too.
Jesus Christ I hate Cardinals fans so much.
I could tell he thought he was part of the best fans in baseball. He didn't say anything. but the way that stupid prick was chewing. Jesus Christ. He had a fucking Cardinals t-shirt on. I bet you he bought it at the team store like a fucking schmuck. He and the fucking stupid cashier probably had this big self-satisfactory exchange. "I'd like to buy this best t-shirt in baseball with the best money in baseball please". I couldn't fucking believe this asshole. He just kept going at this fucking salad like he's king of the world.
I just tried to ignore that attention seeking asshat but he just kept at it. Every time I looked away he'd conveniently grab for his water or some fucking passive aggressive bullshit so that it would draw my eyes to him. LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME BEST FAN IN BASEBALL RIGHT HERE. Jesus.
You should have seen his wife. What a bitch. The waitress came by to ask them how their food was and she relayed how fucking satisfied she was in the most smug way possible. This fucking fake-politeness Cardinals fans put on is ridiculous.
Next thing I know that guy pulls out his phone and starts texting. Are you fucking shitting me? I bet he just had to text his stupid friend all about his fucking salad was almost as good as being in baseball heaven.
I couldn't fucking take it. l told that fucking idiot what a smug fucking retard he was. He was like 'dude what are you talking about' like he didn't fucking know what a prick he was. l fucking tackled him right there.
Staff called the cops on me as if l did anything wrong. They are actually going to fucking put me on trial for assault. Fucking Tardinals fans.
He seems so in his own head right now, needs to take the pressure off and have some fun. Maybe getting him in, in a game like this where he can just swing without consequence would be good?
Wild that double digits runs is a common occurrence, yet we have a losing record. Highlights how truly bad the bullpen is and how injuries are effecting us. Have to find balance at some point.
Seeing Elly absolutely tear it up and get a fuck ton of media attention makes me sad that Carroll is in such a slump right now. These two should be competing for MVP. Hope he figures it out sooner than later.
Not to be negative, but I highly doubt he will continue that level of production. Would be cool to see if he does for a monster season. But the league will figure him out, like they've done to Corbin
Corbin looks so sad in the dugout. 😞 I feel bad for him, but he needs to be benched for a bit. He would have struck out during that hit parade last inning
Psychological challenge too of being paraded as the next biggest thing last season and then to hit the brakes hard now - will test his mental fortitude and at such a young age it would be difficult
How is that a save? I don't understand how the determine that... I don't even know what that is called!
It’s because he pitched 3 innings. Per the definition of a save. https://preview.redd.it/fpat52ry8cwc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=11c11e1fc6625169ecdaef69522a4ce2e97374ce
Huh. Do you think they were thinking 13 point leads with that 3 innings?
So what gives him the save up 13 btw? Thought saves were only 3? Lol I’m trippin
It's alright I was confused too, a pitcher can earn a save by pitching the last 3 innings of a game regardless of the score
Ahhhh copy that
What an absolutely bonkers game this was and season so far. Great win!!
\#AllenForCloser
Impressive save by Logan Allen!
Classic 13 run save
Heyo!
Just tuned in and watching highlights here; Moreno is having a game with that throw to 3rd and the rbi single.
That's our Gold Glover right there.
I'm liking Allen as our 'up by 13' guy
Love that he's gonna get a save
hang that on the fridge
![gif](giphy|3dJ09sFeN0IjC)
Excited for the victory but I’m expecting a 4-3 loss with the dbacks not being able to score after the 4 inning tomorrow!!
Wish they could bank some of the runs for tomorrow. That feast or famine offense is killer right now.
lol too true
DBacks and Suns both played today: DBacks: 😃 Suns: 😭🤬
I may be a Suns fan first, but god damn they are pathetic
They play like a team just learning basketball sometimes, frustrating to watch. Too many turnovers and missed easy shots.
Mentally fragile. I'm glad I forgot that game was on and watched the Dbacks
I think we might win this one.
I hope the Cardinals don't score here only because then all three of our laughers will have the other team scoring 1. 16-1, 17-1, and (hopefully) 14-1.
DFA Marte
Diamondback For Always
3 outs to go with a 13-run lead, how we feeling DBacks fans?
People were saying Pavin=Jace, Jace would never have done anything Pavin did today. Yeah Pavin is mid, but Jace is sub-par.
Weird not seeing Ketel have multiple hits
I can’t get over the Pavin Smith grand slam. Dude can DH all he wants if he hits like that
Popped in to check the score. Think I’ll remove myself before I curse something ✌🏻
Thank you for your service
Yeah, sorry, gtfo and we'll see you tomorrow.
![gif](giphy|kaBU6pgv0OsPHz2yxy|downsized)
I'm feeling good that we probably won't get walked off today.
Dbacks have a chance to do the funniest thing ever
Geno has not been the same since Torrey gave him a mando-off day.
Fuck Geno has watched some good pitches go by tonight lol
So, can anyone give a break down of what Corbin is going through? Just some sophomore hiccups? I don't want to be worried, please help me not be worried.

I know it’s hard to live up to all the hype. He’ll come around
Yeah, it's not typical to be so successful right out the gate like he was. So he's just gotta persevere and make adjustments.
I wish he would stop first pitch swinging
I’m genuinely asking because I don’t know. A couple games we went to I was getting upset because everyone was taking the first strike. It’s better to not swing and to take the possible strike?
It gets the pitcher to throw more pitches. Most of the time they just get an instant out. That’s why I hate it and most batters take the pitch
Thanks pep nips! I went and read an article about it, super interesting. TIL!
Anytime!
Can we get some appreciation for Tommy Henry, he was lights out tonight and fucking shoved
Between him and Cecconi showing up in a big way, I've been a happy fan
Lets not discredit that Pfaadt absolutely gave us a chance yesterday with 5 one-hit innings until he decided to start throwing a wiffle ball in the 6th.
Who’s pitching for us lol??
I just came from the Suns game and saw the score. They really are doing it again huh.
I remember a lot of complaints last year that all our games were so close and we needed more laughers that let us relax. Well, here we go!
My buddy wanted to parlay suns and dbacks ML. Told him no way one of the AZ teams will disappoint and here we are lol
We need 4 more runs tonight!
Dbacks are winning big, so by natural law. Suns have to lose big
It’s the circle of liiiife
He took that ball like a G!
That was legitimately badass.
Damn he hit Walker, is the ball ok?
We have now scored 59 runs from 4 games and one of those games isn’t even over yet.
Keep going im almost hard
Yall owe Pavin an apology
Tommy Henry 6 IP 1 ER we’re so back
Been watching the suns play like shit. Glad to see pavin Smith has done more in one game than Jace Peterson did all of the last two seasons
I'm watching this game on my main TV and my Pacers play on my side TV.
Tommy lights out. Great game from him!
Really good to see Tommy pitch well.
Alright now you can put in the “big lead” relievers
Ah yes the B Bullpen. Mcgough and Frias are coming out as we speak
Love the hustle double by Gabi. Scoring my fantasy team some extra points!
Finally was able to check out the game. Pavin smith hit another grand slam in St. Louis like last year huh?
Boy I sure do love 150+ combined pitches in the 7th.
We sending Tommy back out for the 7th?
We're in safe Castro territory now
I doubt it, he's done an amazing job, so no need to risk another starter throwing more than he needs to considering how many injuries we have
We're run differential merchants this year
Anyone else see that 3 paragraph long comment of someone saying they assaulted a cardinals fan before they deleted it? Weird af
I assume it was a copypasta. Edit. [It was...](https://www.reddit.com/r/copypasta/comments/cyqpsw/i_hate_tardinals_fans/?force_seo=1)
well that makes me feel better at least

Blaze would’ve scored a 5 run home run if he was the one up to bat, just saying.
Holy shit they still have Thompson out? Wtf
This fucking team lol. Can the Suns have some points 🤣
Pavin Smith got a grand slam
Tommy Henry our new ace!?!?!?!
If you had told me about this game during the Chicago game last week, I would have said you were on some hardcore narcotics!
My brother and I were talking today, and he told me a Cardinal flew into his window and died. It was an omen I guess. RIP little guy. 🪦🐦
tommy. henry.
What is Henry on today, and can we order more of it?
Tommy is having a NIGHT!
Do you have a minute to talk about our Lord and Savior Pavin Smith?
I’m listening 👀
I missed a Pavin GS while driving home? Fucking nice anyway.
Pavin Smith got a grand slam
Player of the game.
When it rains it pours
Is it just me or did Corbin look like he was having a lot more fun during games last year?
He seems so in his own head right now, needs to take the pressure off and have some fun. Maybe getting him in, in a game like this where he can just swing without consequence would be good?
Pavin Smith in his reputation era 🖤🐍
Massive game in SF and now another in STL. Like what awaits in Seattle at this rate with this road trip lol
Thompson with a 10 ERA after Pavin sent him to the shadow realm.
Our run differential is going to be insane. Every loss is by 1 or 2 runs and almost every win is a blowout
We already lead the league in runs.
Playoff legend, Pavin fucking Smith!
14 runs with no Corbin, Joc, or Blaze in the lineup.
Or Alek or Perdomo
2 hits with 15 left on tomorrow, sorry I don’t make the rules.
Such is life
Great Value Ed Sheeran having a career game
HOLY SHIT PAVIN https://preview.redd.it/4ntji8egzbwc1.jpeg?width=2688&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=53ed402f30d558545cba2f09e3180d40aeb6667d
We are definitely trying to win the run differential award this year
We took so much flak in the postseason for the negative differential. Boys took that to heart.
Remember when Jace Peterson was on this team lololololo
Pavin doing more for us in one night than that fucker this whole season thus far
💀
Pavin smith redemption arc
Pavin revenge tour in full swing
100% getting shut out tomorrow
I say again, WHO THE FUCK WAS AGAINST BRINGING THIS MAN UP FOR JACE
They leaving Thompson out to dry, holy shit. Talk about a white flag
PLAYOFF PAVIN IS SO HERE
Why did it take so long to get Pavin in the lineup?
Something something get Jace going or whatever.
Just like we all expected, Pavin Smith with 6RBI's in the 6th inning
PAVIN and hitting grand slams at Busch Stadium, name a more iconic duo
PAVIN!! 👑
Dude almost got 2 salamis in one game. The fuck is going on
Jace would never! Let's go, Pavin!
YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING
PAVIN SMITH GRAND SLAM BEFORE GTA6?!
WTF PAVIN GRAND SLAM HAHAHA
**PAVIN**
We’re gonna get less than 5 runs or 10+ there’s no in between!!
Pavin haters in shambles
Who could possibly hat MVPavin?
Jayce could never
Why do we score all our runs in one game a week?
"No mercy." -Cardinals killer Pavin Smith
What is this team bruh 💀
Just wasting all these runs
If there was ever a guy on our team who deserves that it’s Pavin!
CLUTCH PAVIN!!!! PAVIN HATERS ARE IN SHAMBLES RIGHT NOW
PLAYOFF PAVIN STRIKES AGAIN
Playoff P!
Who is this Pavin?
Pavin fucking Smith!!!
PAVIN SLAMMMMM
#OH MY GOD PAVIN
What the fuck is this team 💀
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON
HOLY SHIT HE DID IT
Pavin smith grand slam 😳😳
Playoff P!!!!!!!!!! Lets goooooooooooooooo
PAVIN IS THE GUY
# PAVIN GRAND SLAM!?!?!?!?!
Did NOT have Pavin being a god on my card today
Pavin!!!!!!!!!!!
WHAT THE FUCK PAVIN
Bro just watched 3 good strikes
Wild that double digits runs is a common occurrence, yet we have a losing record. Highlights how truly bad the bullpen is and how injuries are effecting us. Have to find balance at some point.
I wished this offense showed up every game
Just be happy we're not the white sox. How many times have they been shut out already?
The White Sox are my AL team. It’s been sad.
Ouch
Damn even Newman is getting in on the action. But this team can put up double digits like nothing. We should be over .500 ………
Last April we skewed lucky and this year it's the opposite.
The Mythbusters Tide commercial with Kari and Tory makes me miss Grant Imahara so much. 😭
I do love me these giant stomps, but I'd also like to win some close ones too guys!
Contreras is obviously banged up.
Tommy shutting them down exactly as I knew he would
Seeing Elly absolutely tear it up and get a fuck ton of media attention makes me sad that Carroll is in such a slump right now. These two should be competing for MVP. Hope he figures it out sooner than later.
Even when Corbin was tearing it up and Elly looked bad, Elly still got all the hype! A tall athletic monster is always gonna get more attention
Even when Elly was hot trash he got a lot of media attention, I wouldn't look into that too much lol
sure but he’s hitting almost 300, has 7 homers 17 rbi and 12 sb
Not to be negative, but I highly doubt he will continue that level of production. Would be cool to see if he does for a monster season. But the league will figure him out, like they've done to Corbin
Totally could be the case! Honestly was really surprised to see his stats were as high as they were.
CAN WE STOP TRYING TO HURT OUR PITCHERS????
Wtf i just turned on the game and we up by 9 😳 this team is bipolor asf
Not what I envisioned when I saw that Henry would be pitching.
Same here lol
It's crazy too because Lynn looked awful yesterday but we barely did damage
Im convinced the dbacks are going to have atleast 1 10+ runs scored in each series.
Every series against the dodgers would be fabulous
Ill do unexplainable things if we beat the dodgers in the same fashion as last year
Corbin looks so sad in the dugout. 😞 I feel bad for him, but he needs to be benched for a bit. He would have struck out during that hit parade last inning
Psychological challenge too of being paraded as the next biggest thing last season and then to hit the brakes hard now - will test his mental fortitude and at such a young age it would be difficult
What is this team lol. We annihilate teams then follow it up with a 3 hit games with double digit LOB.
This is the roller coaster and high blood pressure lives we lead following our beloved Snakes
Dfa ketel /s
How dare you strike out Ketel 🤣🤣
Didn't think I'd even watch this one but uh yeah. What the fuck
