Buck's back on baseball.

That has a ring to it聽鈥� and it should. 最新杏吧原创an Joe Buck, who broadcast Cardinals games early in his career while ascending to call more World Series on national television than anyone else ever has, is set to return to the baseball broadcasting business Wednesday night for just the third time since leaving Fox four years ago to become the voice of "Monday Night Football" for ESPN.

The at-bat Yohel Pozo stepped up to the plate for in the ninth inning Tuesday night at Busch Stadium is one he was no stranger to. He got familiar with them during the 2025 season.

In a role as a backup catcher and pinch-hit bat, Pozo produced a .379 batting average and drove in eight runs in 31 plate appearances in games that were late and close. Enveloped in that production were game-winning hits against the Cubs at Wrigley Field and a walk-off single vs. the Reds at home.

The Cardinals scored four of their six runs in the eighth inning and beyond聽Tuesday night in a 10-inning win over the Guardians at Busch Stadium.

Here's what manager Oliver Marmol as well as JJ Wetherholt, Michael McGreevy, Matt Svanson and Yohel Pozo had to say afterwards.

After the Cardinals capitalized on a pair of Guardians fielding mistakes to send them into extra innings, they made the most of a third one to secure a walk-off win Tuesday night at Busch Stadium.

Down 5-4 in the ninth inning after rookie JJ Wetherholt hit a two-run homer to bring them within one run, Yohel Pozo鈥檚 double to right field off Cade Smith plated Masyn Winn from second base after he reached on an error and advanced into scoring position on a wild pitch.

Since returning to the majors before the end of March, Cardinals right-hander Gordon Graceffo has looked to stay 鈥減resent鈥� each time he鈥檚 taken the mound to work in relief. He鈥檚 tried not to think 鈥渢oo much鈥� about a past outing or what may happen in the future.

The mental process has helped Graceffo to a 1.08 ERA through his first 8 1/3 innings back in the majors in a role he is still to growing into. He鈥檚 entered spots with traffic on the bases and shown the ability to escape jams. He鈥檚 provided multiple innings from the bullpen and shown flashes of consistent fastball velocity over his six outings.

Against a Cleveland starter who had not allowed as many as three hits in any of his previous three games this season, the Cardinals welcomed Gavin Williams to 最新杏吧原创 with consecutive hits to start Monday鈥檚 game. They got a run before he got an out. They got his pitch count up quickly with hopes of getting him out early. And they had five consecutive plate appearances in the first inning with runners in scoring position.

The Cardinals got everything they wanted聽鈥� everything their lineup really needs聽鈥� in the first inning against one of the top right-handers in the majors.
