Reyes, Cabrera emerging as Cardinals' left-right, late-inning tag-team knockouts from bullpen

PITTSBURGH — The route wasn’t as direct as the Cardinals had mapped in March for their left-right, late-inning tag team, but after a belated arrival to “Summer Camp” and a detour through Springfield, Missouri, Genesis Cabrera and Alex Reyes have reached their intended destinations.

“I think we both came into ‘Summer Camp’ and we both tested positive for COVID-19, and we didn’t take that in a negative way,” Reyes said. “We worked our butts off. We put ourselves in position to be available. That’s all you can ask for, for a guy out of the pen. Whatever the situation they want to use us for, I’m sure he’s available.
