[QUOTE="pruman91, post: 1764618, member: 3916"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.stltoday.com/sports/baseball/professional/power-plays-bader-arenado-timely-top-shelf-homers-lift-cardinals-for-7-5-comeback-to/article_3c30aedd-49ff-5254-8c67-1400800232c0.html[/URL] [URL='https://www.stltoday.com/users/profile/dgoold']Derrick Goold[/URL] During the handshake and hand-slap line on the field that only goes to the victors, Cardinals center fielder Harrison Bader repeated the same phrase Sunday to teammates. “We earned that one,” he said. High five. “We earned that one.” Hand clasp. “We earned it.” After falling behind twice because Arizona continued to do what it so often had not this season, the Cardinals socked two home runs in the seventh inning to rally and overtake the Diamondbacks for a 7-5 victory at Busch Stadium. The Cardinals had gone more than two weeks without hitting two home runs in a game before Bader and Nolan Arenado each hit one over the left-field wall in the span of six pitches. Bader’s two-run, two-strike jolt was his first homer of the season and flipped a game that featured two rallies started by Andrew Knizner, an encouraging start from Jordan Hicks and Ryan Helsley’s super-powered, six-out save. “It was one of those games where we were kind of behind the entire time,” Bader said. “Put up a run, and they came back with another solo shot. They kept applying the pressure. We stuck to our plan. That was just a win that we earned as a team, collectively.” [/QUOTE]
