Billy Hamilton runs all over St. Louis Cardinals, Reds win 7-4

The Joe Nuxhall Memorial Honorary Star of the Game

Billy Hamilton has been on the exact kind of hot streak the Cincinnati Reds envisioned when they promoted him back for his first cup of coffee back in 2013, and he's taken to the team's leadoff spot amazingly well. On Tuesday, he wrought pain on the St. Louis Cardinals in numerous ways, as he walked twice, went 2 for 3 with the bat, scored three times, stole three bases, and genuinely embarrassed all those who chose to stand in his path in the process.
