Cardinals Win, Hope to Turn Around Slow Start
Jose Alberto Martinez was the difference-maker for the St. Louis Cardinals in what turned into a shootout with the Cincinnati Reds. Martinez earned the player of the game award after going 3-for-5 in the 13-9 Cardinals win. The Reds fall to 6-9 and continue their lackluster start to the 2018 season.

The Cardinals got a big at-bat from shortstop Adeiny Hechavarria. For the game, Hechavarria went 3 for 6 with 3 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. In the top of the sixth, with the bases loaded, he stroked a 2-run single. His 14th hit of the season gave St. Louis a 8-6 lead.

"We'll pop the top on a cold one and get back to work tomorrow," Martinez said.
