Jake McCarthy leads Rockies to victory over Cardinals

In recent MLB action, Jake McCarthy delivered a historic performance for the Colorado Rockies in an 8-5 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals. McCarthy became only the second player in the live-ball era to record at least four hits, four runs, three RBIs, two home runs, and two stolen bases in a single game, joining Shohei Ohtani in this elite club.

During the game, McCarthy hit two home runs, including a leadoff blast. Jordan Walker also contributed to the victory by breaking a 22-game home run drought with an eighth-inning solo shot. The Rockies' win snapped a four-game losing streak.
