MILWAUKEE — It took two monster swings by rookie Nolan Gorman to put just enough distance between the Cardinals and Milwaukee for the visitors to get a chance to flaunt the best they can bring out of their bullpen.
On his way to four hits and four RBIs, Gorman hit two home runs – one to break a tie and the other to extend the Cardinals’ lead. His 428-foot smash toward the scoreboard in center field at American Family Field snapped a 2-2 tie and opened the way for the Cardinals to get as many outs as they could from their relief tandem, Giovanny Gallegos, and Ryan Helsley.
