A day before turning 21 years old, Cardinals rookie Jordan Walker doubled and reached on an infield single in four at-bats during Class AAA Memphis’s 7-1 loss to Braves’ Class AAA affiliate, Gwinnett, on Sunday.
With the two hits in the series finale, Walker, who turned 21 on Monday, secured a hitting streak of at least three games for the first time since heading down to the minors on April 26. The performance was also his second consecutive multi-hit game after he singled twice on Saturday.
The Cardinals rookie is batting .217 since his option to the minors but has heated up of late.
