Tommy Pham, Marcell Ozuna Flash Leather In Cardinals' Outfield

Tommy Pham is the type of player who is never satisfied. There is always another way to improve, another rung to reach. He's the type of player who lays out to make a diving catch to conclude a nine-run game, which is what he did during Thursday's 13-4 Cardinals win over the Reds.

Mike Mayers Get In Game Vs. Reds After Call-Up; Joey Votto, At Rest; Luke Gregerson Strides Forward; Yadier Molina, Etc

Cardinals prospect Mike Mayers spent 24 hours with Class AAA Memphis after his demotion earlier this week and had just enough time to put on a Redbirds jersey twice, attend two games, and not throw a single pitch. Still.

Mike Leake's Improvement No Coincidence
