Dylan Carlson

Dylan Carlson became the first St. Louis Cardinals rookie to record three extra-base hits in a single game since Albert Pujols in 2002. The switch-hitter from Elk Grove, California, began his three-hit barrage with a leadoff homer in the bottom of the first inning. Carlson would then rope two doubles, one coming in the bottom of the third inning and the next coming in the bottom of the fifth inning. Dylan would finish the contest 3-for-4 at the plate with one RBI and one run to help lift the Cardinals to a 3-2 victory over the Chicago Cubs.
