Aledmys Diaz crushes a grand slam in return to Cardinals' lineup
St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Aledmys Diaz blasted a home run as the Cardinals beat the Cincinnati Reds 12-5 on Tuesday.
Diaz was away from the team on Monday, spending time with the family of Jose Fernandez's family in Miami, and paid tribute to his fallen friend, pointing to the sky as he crossed home plate after his home run.
Diaz has looked great from the dish in his first year in the majors, slashing .301/.368/.516 with a .371 wOBA and .215 ISO through 439 plate appearances.
