ST. LOUIS -- Having had a first-inning home run scooped away by Juan Perez's sensational climb and catch, Cards outfielder Stephen Piscotty ensured he hit his next one where even the speedy Giants center fielder couldn't track it down.
Though robbed of a chance at his first multi-homer game, Piscotty settled for a third-inning solo blast that loomed largely in the team's eventual 4-3 win over the Giants on Wednesday. That one he hit several rows deep into the left-field seats, where no one but a fan could make a play.
"Just forget about it and go to the next at-bat," Piscotty said of being on the wrong end of Perez's defensive gem.
