Sal Stewart’s pivotal performance helped the Cincinnati Reds secure a 5-4 victory against the St. Louis Cardinals, ensuring a split in their four-game series. Despite only one hit, Stewart’s sixth-inning three-run home run turned the game around and made him the current MLB RBI leader. This achievement enhances his candidacy for the National League Rookie of the Year award. Stewart now has two more RBIs than Cardinals’ first baseman Alec Burlesson, underscoring his potential for historic recognition.
