MILWAUKEE – The story was there, the unscripted return of Alex Reyes to the ninth inning to do more than save a game but save a series and steady a moment.
It was there – and gone, like the walk-off grand slam that ended it.
Daniel Vogelbach crushed a one-out grand slam in the ninth inning to vaporize the Cardinals’ lead and send Milwaukee to a 6-5 victory. The Cardinals had a 5-1 lead entering the ninth inning, but Giovanny Gallegos and Reyes could not hold it. Four runners reached against Gallegos before the Cardinals made the call to turn to Reyes with the bases loaded and the potential winning run at the plate.
