The St. Louis Cardinals got on a winning note Tuesday night after deafeating the Atlanta Braves with a final score of 6-3. The game took quite some time, as a two hour and 52 minute rain delay in the sixth inning.
The Cardinals relied on run scoring base hits and a two-run home run off the bat of Juan Encarnacion. Albert Pujols went 0 fof 3 with a walk. His progression is still getting there though, as the walk is showing that he has gained his plate discipline back already. He isn’t overswinging or using a different stance, he seems to be ready for every at-bat, much like before he went on the disabled list.
The Cardinals have a chance to win the series in Atlanta today. The team needs this to gain some major confidence. Hopefully they’ll pull it off this afternoon.
