Giovanny Gallegos - Earns 10th saveGallegos picked up the save Sunday against the Pirates. He struck out one over a perfect inning.

ImpactGallegos had allowed six earned runs in 2.2 innings since his last save on Aug. 9, but needed only eight pitches to close out Sunday's game. Gallegos has been splitting the late-inning duties with JoJo Romero, but with Ryan Helsley recently being activated from the injured list, the pecking order of the Cardinals bullpen remains murky.

It was Edman's second multi-steal effort in four games, and he has now swiped 22 bags on the season. He's now slashing .246/.310/.415 with 12 homers, 41 RBI and 60 runs scored in 386 at-bats over 114 games.

Miguel Andujar - Hits first homer since call-upAndujar went 2-for-4 with a home run, two RBI and one run scored in Sunday's 6-4 loss against St. Louis.

ImpactAndujar made his second consecutive start since being called up from Triple-A Indianapolis and delivered with two hits, including a solo shot in the second. Following a 2018 campaign in New York that saw him hit 27 homers, the former top Yankee farmhand has bounced between the majors and minors over much of the past five years with both the Yankees and Pirates. The 28-year-old hit .338 with 16 homers over 103 games for Indianapolis and will look to use the final few weeks of the season as a springboard towards a future permanent big-league role.

Zack Thompson - Tosses quality start, earns winThompson (4-5) earned the win Sunday, allowing three runs on seven hits and zero walks over seven innings against Pittsburgh. He struck out six.

ImpactIt was the longest outing of Thompson's career as he closed out the seventh emphatically by allowing a pop up then striking out the final two batters for a 1-2-3 inning. The win was his second over the Pirates in 11 days and helped the Cardinals stave off a sweep. Thompson will carry a 3.86 ERA into his next start, likely to take place next weekend in Cincinnati.
