Matt Carpenter Fine After Saturday Knee Scare; Alex Reyes Impressing In Minors; Rehab Roundup; UMPS Charity Auction

The precautionary reasons that led to Matt Carpenter's exit from Saturday’s 10-2 win over the Mets seemed to do the trick, as the third baseman stayed in his usual leadoff spot for Sunday’s series finale. Carpenter went 0-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts in the Cardinals' 6-4 win.

Dexter Fowler Kindly Helps Noah Syndergaard Get His First Home Run Of The Season

Mets pitcher, and hand, foot and mouth disease survivor, Noah Syndergaard was up 2-1 in the count against Dakota Hudson in the top of the fourth. On the following pitch, Syndergaard swung and sent the ball deep to center field. Cardinals outfielder Dexter Fowler began tracking the ball back towards the wall, and tried to make a leaping catch once he thought he figured out the ball’s trajectory. But while opening his glove to make the out, he instead created a platform for the ball to bounce off of and land over the wall for the pitcher’s first home run of the season.
