E2 — Nice play by Hoerner to charge a dribbler hit by Yadi & throw him out at 1B. Yadi's feet-first slide not quite in time.

T5 — Ponce de Leon gets as long as he needs to warm up & prepare to pitch due to Mikolas having to leave the game due to injury without anyone up in the bullpen.

T9 — Reyes pitching. Happ strikes out (dropped 3rd strike thrown to 1B). Sogard (on his birthday) grounds out. Hoerner tallies an IF single. Cards argue that the slow roller hit up the 3rd baseline was foul when Arenado grabbed it.
