[QUOTE="pruman91, post: 1782446, member: 3916"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.stltoday.com/sports/baseball/professional/quick-hits-tyler-oneills-homer-shatters-tie-hoists-cardinals-to-sweep-of-cubs/article_7cd28913-cdbc-5b70-b0b8-38f812c3340f.html[/URL] [URL='https://www.stltoday.com/users/profile/dgoold']Derrick Goold[/URL] Before the first of the Cardinals’ new lefty starters spun a pitch, manager Oliver Marmol was pragmatic about what he was eager to see first from Jose Quintana. The swings and misses and zeroes could come later. “It’s going to be fun to watch him in our uniform,” Marmol said. In his feathered debut after arriving near the trade deadline from Pittsburgh, Quintana gave the Cardinals what they saw enough times playing against him. With six strong innings and one run allowed, the veteran lefty put the Cardinals in position for a doubleheader sweep of the rival Cubs on Thursday at Busch Stadium. A brief detour by the bullpen lost a lead and only invited someone else to share in the evening’s spotlight. Tyler O’Neill, out from the shadows of injuries and frustration, emerged with his first home run at Busch Stadium since opening day. The Cardinals’ left fielder, most recently hounded by leg soreness, drilled a three-run homer to shatter a tie and send the Cardinals’ to a 7-2 victory in the night game. His homer landed in the Cubs bullpen, and after carrying the bat like a magic wand, O’Neill cast it aside near first base coach Stubby Clapp. [/QUOTE]
