Walker gave up a home run to Paul Goldschmidt but lasted seven innings. He allowed eight hits and five earned runs.
ST. LOUIS — Taijuan Walker has been consistent, but not in the way you want. For the last few months, he has consistently struggled. He hasn’t thrown a quality start since July 31 in Miami. He pitched to a 4.76 ERA in August, which, after another rough performance against the Cardinals in the Phillies’ 6-5 loss on Sunday, has now ballooned to a 7.84 ERA in September.
Walker allowed back-to-back singles in the third. Paul Goldschmidt hit a two-out double to give the Cardinals an early 2-0 lead. After he walked Alec Burleson, Walker allowed an RBI double to Nolan Arenado to make that a 3-0 lead. Things escalated quickly. All of a sudden, while the Cardinals infielders were trying to chase down Bohm, Harper broke for home plate. Cardinals second baseman Juniel Querecuto couldn’t decide whom to throw to, and none of the Cardinals outfielders came in to cover second base during the rundown. Harper reached home safely and Bohm was safe at second.Why were the Phillies chanting a curse at Trea Turner? He doesn’t know, but ‘it’s hilarious.
But Walker was unable to capitalize on the momentum his team had given him. He allowed a solo home run to Goldschmidt and an RBI single to Arenado in the fifth inning to give the Cardinals a 5-3 lead. He finished his outing at seven innings, allowing eight hits and five earned runs with one walk and three strikeouts.
