Matt Carpenter came on as a pinch-hitter in the fifth inning on Thursday and promptly hit a three-run home run to right field off of Phillies ace Aaron Nola to temporarily give the Cardinals a 3-1 lead.
Fantasy Impact:
The 35-year-old veteran is still hitting a hard-to-fathom .095 on the season (4-for-42) and has been reduced to a part-time/bench role in St. Louis. He's quite far removed from the fantasy radar at this stage of his career.
