Clubs 14th homer
1BSt. Louis Cardinals
July 21, 2024
Goldschmidt went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 6-2 loss to Atlanta.
ANALYSIS
Goldschmidt entered the contest with no hits in 12 at-bats over the previous three games and was dropped to seventh in the St. Louis batting order, the lowest he's hit in a game since the 2012 season. He broke out of his funk in the second inning, when he clubbed his 14th home run of the season to put the Cardinals on the board. However, the long ball was the only hit of the day for the veteran first baseman, who also struck out twice. Goldschmidt is currently on pace to finish with career-low marks in average (.225), on-base percentage (.287) and slugging percentage (.372), and he's also maintaining his highest strikeout rate (28.9 percent) since his rookie season.
