In a game chalk full of signature moments, the Blue Jays managed to beat the St. Louis Cardinals in the opener of their 3 game set at Busch Stadium. The Jays prevailed 6-5 in the 11th inning when Marcus Stroman unexpectedly scored the winning run, after providing a pinch-hit double.
Stroman’s moment was huge, and an unexpected shot in the arm for a team that badly needed a break to go their way for once in this young 2017 season. They got that break with Stroman, but they had another earlier in the game as well.
