Box Score On the night where Christian Yelich returned to the lineup, one of the biggest punching bags of the offense had the big performance.

The St. Louis Cardinals got a positive if not spectacular start from Kyle Leahy on Sunday, but it was Jordan Walker’s Mother’s Day moonshot that helped the Cardinals nearly beat the San Diego Padres.

The San Diego Padres really needed a win. They’d take it any way that they could get it, eking out a 4-2 win over the St. Louis Cardinals after failing to score a single run in 21 consecutive innings until Ty France’s fifth inning home run. It was all the runs that they would need, […]
The San Diego Padres faced a catching void after Luis Campusano suffered a broken toe.
