VIDEO: Marcell Ozuna Clears the Bases With RBI Double off Gio Gonzalez as Cardinals Take Huge Lead
By Daniel Marcillo
The Cardinals and Brewers began a momentous series in Milwaukee on Monday and the Cards quickly showed why they hold the top spot in the NL Central. After building an early 3-0 lead off Gio Gonzalez, Marcell Ozuna came up big with the bases loaded. His opposite field knock cleared the bases to give the Cards a 6-0 lead.
Ozuna perfectly sliced it into the right field corner at Miller Park, giving Paul Goldschmidt plenty of time to score from first base.
Ozuna is leading the charge as the Cardinals try to push the Brewers to 5.5 games out of first place and knock them out of the NL Central picture.
