Cardinals' JJ Wetherholt hits Little League grand slam in win over Padres, capitalizing on Fernando Tatís Jr. error

Key Points:

• JJ Wetherholt, recently debuted with the St. Louis Cardinals, capitalized on a rare defensive error by Padres All-Star Fernando Tatís Jr., hitting a bases-loaded single that led to a crucial run in a 6-0 victory.
• Tatís, a two-time Gold Glove winner, misplayed the ball in right field, allowing it to roll past him to the wall and enabling multiple Cardinals runs to score, much to the dismay of Padres fans.
• The error broke a scoreless tie and provided key run support for Cardinals pitcher Michael McGreevy, who had been pitching six scoreless innings with nine strikeouts.
• Wetherholt celebrated his "Little League grand slam" enthusiastically, acknowledging the unusual nature of the scoring but emphasizing the importance of the four runs in a critical game moment.
• This sequence highlighted both a rare defensive lapse from an otherwise stellar defender and a memorable moment for the young Cardinals player early in his MLB career.
