Carpenter went 2-for-5 with an RBI ground-rule double and a run in a win over the Rangers on Saturday.

Carpenter's fifth-inning blast, which hit the top of the 14-foot wall in left field at Globe Life Park, was originally ruled a home run. However replay review ultimately rendered it Carpenter's eighth two-bagger of the season instead, but it still served to jump-start an impressive four-run inning for the Cardinals. The veteran is still hitting just .212 in May, but he's now reached safely in six straight games while rattling off three extra-base hits (two doubles, one homer) during that stretch.
