Matt Carpenter Gets Rare Day Off; Jon Jay Stays In Lineup; Jack Flaherty To Report To Jupiter

An oddity of the Cardinals’ stretch of seven wins in eight games before Tuesday night was that in five of the victories, leadoff man Matt Carpenter, one of the top on-base men in baseball, didn’t score a run and in four of those games he didn’t even get on base.

California high school righthander Jack Flaherty, a Cardinals first-round pick wooed away from the University of North Carolina by a reported $2 million signing bonus, will report to Jupiter, Fla., today and the Florida Gulf Coast League team.
