Career History
Alec Burleson: Breaking News
Leads offense in win
Burleson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and three additional runs scored in Friday's 10-3 win over the Reds. Burleson was a thorn in the Reds' side all game, launching a solo blast in the third inning and scoring a career-high four runs. The 27-year-old is in the midst of a modest six-game hitting streak that includes four multi-hit efforts, eight RBI and five runs scored. On the season, he's slashing .291/.356/.457 with eight long balls, 43 RBI, 30 runs scored and two steals across 261 plate appearances.
Getting day off versus lefty
Burleson is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Athletics. The Cardinals are facing a lefty in Jacob Lopez, so they'll take this opportunity to give the left-handed-hitting Burleson a rare day off. Jose Fermin will grab a start at first base and bat sixth for St. Louis.
