With the score tied 1-1 in the bottom of the 8th inning, Nolan Arenado came to the plate and turned on a 97-mph inside fastball, crushing a two-run home run to left field and propelling the Cardinals to a 3-1 win over the Brewers on Thursday. It was Arenado's only hit in four at-bats.
Fantasy Impact
What a heck of a debut in front of the Cardinals faithful in the home opener at Busch Stadium. Arenado is hitting .345 with two homers through his first seven games in St. Louis. Who needs Coors Field?
