For me, Herrera’s 3 HR’s wasn’t most unique thing today

It was seeing Winn standing on 3rd base with Contreras
on 2nd base at same time.
Had to rub my eyes a couple times to check if I was seeing things.
:lol:

Did that surprise others today ?
Great offense today! No quit in this team .

Was nice to see.

It was only a matter of time before Contreras started hitting. Hoping Winn has another decent year with the bat as well.

Will 2nd that comment. Thought I would try to add a bit of humor to a historic day for the franchise.

Huge game for the both of them. Maybe, just maybe it jump starts them. Glad that it happen in the same game, and at such critical stages for the both of them.

I'll say this...it's pretty obvious that both Winn & Scott need to be frequent bunters of the baseball.

No, they won't get hits every time, but they will get their fair share, they'll draw infields in, and drive opposing pitchers & defenses crazy.

Yes, and when you successfully lay one down it gives the manager more faith to call a bunt again.

Walker, Scott, and Winn in the games, especially on basepaths brings back excitement to Cards baseball. Scott's D has been standing ovation worthy.

Red Sox, Phils, Astro's, Mets, Braves, Brewers, and Reds - the schedule for balance of April should give a great read on this team. As long as Marmot does not attempt to show MLB how great a manager he is, heading into May in 1st place in Central would be beyond expectations.

Yeah love how even though Herrera was clearly the player of the game and was his spotlight, it still felt like such a team effort of nearly everyone who played contributing

For 'unique' may Burleson's walk?

Regarding WC and MW's productivity, I chalk that up to simply 'encouraging news.'
