Dustin May struggles after Cardinals' complete game shutout
Summary

Dustin May, after starting with the St. Louis Cardinals following a trade from the Boston Red Sox, threw a complete game shutout on June 15. However, in his subsequent start, he lasted only two innings due to back tightness, giving up six earned runs. Injuries have been a recurring issue for May, who missed all of 2024 and has a 4.30 ERA in 15 starts this season. The Cardinals are vying for a postseason spot and need him to improve for the rest of the season.
