Hochman: Cards' O'Neill is too hot to take out of lineup

The biggest Canadian hitter to come to St. Louis since Tony Twist, slugger Tyler O’Neill has taken St. Louis by storm since his second call-up. Three homers in three games, including a three-run blast Monday night at Busch Stadium, which has turned into his personal playground.

O’Neill is changing games. Miles Mikolas was the story Monday, shutting down and shutting out the Royals 6-0, but the game was still a game when O’Neill came to the plate and walloped a three-run shot. For good measure, he also smacked a double for an RBI. Four on the night. What a night.
