ST. LOUIS (AP) — Nolan Gorman snapped an 0-for-19 slump with a two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth inning that gave the St. Louis Cardinals a 5-3 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Monday night.
“I knew right off the bat,” Gorman said. “I’ve been scuffling. I’m not someone to throw my stuff in and quit. They say fake it until you make it. I got a pitch down the middle and I put a good swing on it. I wanted to run the bases quick and get with my teammates to celebrate.”
It was the fourth home run this season for Gorman, who entered as a defensive replacement in the eighth. Paul Goldschmidt, who homered earlier, reached on an infield single before Gorman hit left-hander Kyle Nelson’s only pitch into the right-field seats for his first career walk-off RBIs.
“No doubt, this was special,” Gorman said. “I’ll remember it for sure.”
