Winn Walk-off, Crash: Cardinals Star's Near-Miss

On April 2nd, St. Louis Cardinal Shortstop Mason win delivered a walk-off infield single

to beat the New York meds in 11 innings on Wednesday.

But the real drama hit right after.

He got into a single car crash on Interstate 64 slash Highway 40 because of wet roads.

Luckily, the 24-year-old was alone in the car and walked away with no serious injuries

after police, team security, and medical staff checked, him out at a local hospital.

The Cardinals put out a quick statement confirming win was fine and thanking first responders

for their help.

This came on the heels of a strong start to their season, sitting at four wins and two

losses due the first six games, with win playing a huge part in that success.

Fans and the team breathed the sigh of relief when win posted on Instagram the next day,

saying he felt great despite the banged up car.

That update spread fast online, easing worries about one of their core players.

Right now, the team has not said if win will miss time on the injured list, but his defensive

skills at Shortstop make him irreplaceable alongside.

Guys like JJ Weatherholt and Alan Burleson.

With win signaling he's back on the field soon, the Cardinals can keep pushing forward,

knowing their key piece dodged a major bullet and stays ready.

To shine.
