ST. LOUIS • During a recent conversation with his father, Brandon Moss, the hitter the Cardinals added at the trade deadline, described how his new team had bought him time to find his old swing. But at some point they were going to need him to have it.
“I know the home runs and hits are going to come,” Moss said, standing in the Cardinals’ dugout before Thursday’s game. “I would like for them to come sooner. You want to make a good impression. Luckily, fortunately, everyone is playing well and we’re winning ballgames.
