Jason Motte went 1 2/3 scoreless innings Wednesday against the Diamondbacks in his first appearance since 2012. Motte's fastball velocity was just 92-93 mph -- down several ticks from where it was before Tommy John reconstructive elbow surgery, but his cutter looked sharp and he helped the Cardinals to a 12th-inning victory.
