There was a rancid smell that many people around Busch Stadium were tweeting and posting on Facebook about. Here's what some said:
Portions of downtown #STL smell like a combination of vomit and a Cargill processing plant right now. Any idea what this is??

August 1, 2019 What WAS that smell downtown last night? Some people are saying Busch Stadium stunk, but it was all over downtown. It was gross. https://t.co/ZKuYL0Rvmw

Why does all of Busch stadium smell like straight butthole? @Cardinals

August 1, 2019 There was at least one person connecting the smell to the Cardinals not making a big trade at the deadline.
It’s smell like a front office dumpster fire at Busch Stadium tonight for the @Cardinals game. Good thing @espn is here for it

August 1, 2019 A mixture of Cubs fans and horrible Cardinal baseball.

August 1, 2019 A few complaints were posted on Facebook too. One pointed out that a lot of Cubs fans were in town. Hmmm.
