17-Run Outburst Without A Homer Was MLB Rarity; Michael Wacha Benefits Again; Paul DeJong: The Walking Man; Yadier Molina Receives Roberto Cleemente Award

Four of the Cardinals’ last seven wins before Friday night had come without their hitting a home run, which is unusual enough in this age of launch angles and exit velocities. But to have 17 runs without a homer on Thursday marked not only the first time the Cardinals had scored that many runs without a four-bagger since 2008 (18 vs. Atlanta) but it was the first time the majors in more than seven years, or since the Colorado Rockies had 17 without a homer against San Francisco at spacious Coors Field in Denver.
