Foggy Game, Historic Homer | St. Louis Cardinals News
Description
Fog so thick at Wrigley Field that players couldn’t see the ball, rookie JJ Wetherholt had to personally alert umpires — it was cool at first, then downright scary. The haze even disabled the automated ball-strike system, forcing old-school calls. Yet the Cardinals powered through, shutting out the Cubs 3-0, with Wetherholt crushing another homer. He’s on fire this season — batting .266 with 13 homers, including back-to-back-inning homers — and now he’s in elite Cardinals company. With the team just half a game behind Chicago for second, this win is huge as they eye the playoffs and prepare for another showdown with the Cubs on Sunday.
