Jesse Winker powers Cincinnati Reds to first four-game sweep in St. Louis since 1990
ST. LOUIS – Jesse Winker stood in the batter’s box and held the finish of his swing. He watched as the ball sailed toward the right field wall, almost trying to will it into the seats by holding his swing as long as he could.
Once the ball landed in the seats, there was no containing his emotions.
He pumped his fist as he ran up the first-base line. He skipped after touching second. He shouted to his teammates after crossing third. He clapped his hands after reaching home plate and broke into a smile as he approached Nick Castellanos.
