In the nook, cranny or corner – but not divot – Ozuna caught a long fly ball from Michael Taylor to end the sixth inning and secure what became a 5-1 victory against Washington on Wednesday. Ozuna reached base four times, had three hits, scored two runs, and provided one early RBI against Max Scherzer as the Cardinals surgically, methodically, almost predictably picked apart their hosts. The Cardinals capitalized on two misplays in the first inning for three runs, and an error in the eighth allowed the Cardinals to extend their lead. Those ever-cagey Cardinals – give them an opening and they’ll take an inning, give them extra out and they’ll conjure a rally.
