Lance Berkman has played in 38 straight games for the Cardinals. Berkman admits that he "can feel in (his) legs it's July and August," but says it's "not something I haven't felt before. It's not overwhelming. I just think it's the nature of our sport." Though he's batted just .236 during that span, he's belted 14 homers while driving in 24 runs. Not only has Big Puma's production this season been remarkable, but the fact that he's become something of an iron man after entering the year with heath questions has also been a pleasant surprise.
