Joshua Baez absolutely crushed this home run 454 feet -- the longest by a Memphis Redbird this season. He now owns four of the team's five longest HRs this year: 454, 435, 426 and 423 feet.

Lars Nootbaar, who has been out all season, is scheduled to begin appearing in Minor League games on May 12, #STLCards manager Oliver Marmol said. Nootbaar had surgery on both heels and has passed all of his running tests. The hope is he will return by the end of May.

Awesome news for Lars Also have to imagine this puts a clock on Victor Scott II, who could be relegated to fourth outfielder duties once Nootbaar returns
