MIAMI • Cardinals center fielder Dexter Fowler, who hasn’t been able to play in the field for a week now since he hurt his right shoulder diving for a fly ball, hasn’t exactly been inactive, especially the last couple of days.
After singling as a pinch hitter in the ninth inning to win Tuesday night’s game here, Fowler emerged as a pinch hitter again in the sixth inning Wednesday. This time, he tripled in two runs off Miami lefthanded rookie Jarlin Garcia and then scored a third run in the inning on Kolten Wong’s sacrifice fly.
