Carpenter went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Sunday's 5-0 win over the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Carpenter opened May with a flurry, smacking four homers in the first five games. He hadn't gone deep since that point until Sunday, when his 435-foot shot to right center in the third with Kolten Wong extended the Cardinals' lead to 4-0 at the time. The blast pushed Carpenter's RBI total in May to 10, and his team-leading RBI and slugging totals to 24 and .410, respectively.
