WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Jordan Walker’s four-hit, two-home run game proved the main course of an offensive feast by the Cardinals as they logged their fifth win of the Grapefruit League season.
Paul DeJong, Nolan Gorman and Matt Koperniak each also contributed home runs as the Cardinals defeated the Washington Nationals 9-6 in front of an announced 3,260 at The Ballpark of the Palm Beaches on Saturday afternoon.
Walker fell a triple shy of the cycle on a day when he beat out an infield single, lined a double to left-center field and blasted two home runs.
