Adam Wainwright dominates Cubs, hugs it out with Yadier Molina

Wainwright dominates Cubs, hugs it out with Yadi

Adam Wainwright dominated the Cubs during the Cardinals' 3-0 Opening Night win on Sunday. He pitched six scoreless innings, while giving up five hits and striking out six. On Opening Day in 2014, Wainwright pitched seven scoreless innings, allowing just three hits and K'ing nine batters. Using my trusty online calculator, that's 13 straight opening game innings of scoreless baseball with 15 strikeouts. 

ADAM WAINWRIGHT IS AN OPENING GAME GOD! HIS STRIKE ZONE IS IN 3D!

You know what that deserves? That deserves a hug.

It's good to have you back, baseball.
