LEADOFF QUICK HITTERS

SATURDAY, MAY 2, 2026 

Jordan Walker went 4-of-4, drove in two runs and scored twice to lead the Cardinals to a 7-2 win over the Dodgers on Friday night at Busch Stadium. It was their fifth win in a row. Nolan Gorman and Alec Burleson homered and Matthew Liberatore won his first game of the season in his seventh start.

Before the game it was announced that Albert Pujols, Yadier Molina and Bill Sherdel had been elected to the Cardinals' Hall of Fame. The induction ceremony will be on Sept. 12 at Busch Stadium.

Michael McGreevy will get the start tonight in the second game of the series, which will be televised by Fox.
