The Cardinals, who entered the day ranked third in the Majors with 35 home runs, weren't done depositing balls into the seats either. Matt Adams and Aledmys Diaz took Hellickson deep in a three-pitch span to give the Cardinals their first set of back-to-back homers on the night. Yes, there would be another.
Those came in the seventh when Kolten Wong and Randal Grichuk took reliever Brett Oberholtzer deep.
