Goldschmidt hasn’t exactly lived up to expectations so far this year, batting .248/.335/.424 on the season after signing the largest contract in St. Louis Cardinals franchise history (5y/$130M). His towering shot with the bases juiced in extra innings may have restored faith from the STL fan base.

Eduardo Suarez was having a 0-3 day.. until the 7th inning with 2 outs, down 2-1, when he cranked a 2-run shot to take the lead. That wasn’t even his biggest hit of the night.

Despite Saladino’s heroics, it was Suarez’ clutch swing later on that ended up getting the job done in this one.
This is Tyler Saladino’s first grand slam since … yesterday.
