Goldschmidt went 2-for-5 with a pair of doubles, an RBI and a run Wednesday in the Cardinals' 6-4 loss to the Brewers in 10 innings.
EDGE Analysis
Goldschmidt's first double of the night scored Tommy Edman and gave the Cardinals an early 3-0 lead, but Milwaukee clawed back from the early deficit to send the game to extras before prevailing in the 10th. Though Goldschmidt has now churned out three two-hit games in a row and is batting .345 in August, he's left the yard just one time this month and is on pace for his lowest home-run total in a full season since 2016 (24).

Goldschmidt went 2-for-5 with a double, one RBI, two runs scored and a steal in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
Goldschmidt was busy in the first inning, knocking a single, stealing third and eventually crossing home in the three-run opening frame. He then ripped an RBI double and scored again in the second. The 6-foot-3 slugger has been on fire in August, going 16-for-50 (.320) with 13 RBI and three steals in 13 games. Goldschmidt's season OPS is up to .789 with 39 extra-base hits while going 9-for-9 in stolen base attempts.

Goldschmidt went 1-for-4 with three RBI and a run scored Saturday in the Cardinals' 9-4 win over the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
Goldschmidt had a hand in the Cardinals' four-run seventh inning that turned the tide in the game, driving in a pair of runs on a base hit. He would add another RBI to his ledger on a sacrifice fly in his final at-bat in the ninth inning. Goldschmidt will start at first base and bat second in Sunday's series finale.

Goldschmidt went 1-for-2 with three walks and a run Wednesday against the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Goldschmidt reached base in all but one of his plate appearances, though his box score was pedestrian otherwise. The effort continued what has been a productive stretch for Goldschmidt, as he has eight RBI and four runs scored across his last 10 games. Overall, he maintains a .269/.338/.443 line with 18 home runs and seven stolen bases across 476 plate appearances on the season.

Goldschmidt went 2-for-5 with a pair of RBI singles in a loss to the Royals on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Goldschmidt managed his third two-hit effort of the last four games, a stretch that's also seen him belt his 18th home run of the season. The veteran first baseman went into the All-Star break wielding a hot bat and has impressively maintained his momentum since the Midsummer Classic, as he boasts a .328/.386/.544 slash line with six doubles, seven homers, 22 RBI, 13 walks, two stolen bases and 19 runs over the 31 games he's played since June 30.

Goldschmidt went 1-for-4 with an RBI single and a run-scoring sacrifice double play while adding a stolen base in a win over the Twins on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Golschmidt bounced back from an increasingly rare 0-for-4 day Saturday and produced only his second and third RBI of the last 11 games. The veteran slugger has been highly productive otherwise in the second half of the season, posting a .290 average, .880 OPS, three doubles, four home runs, eight RBI, six walks, a pair of steals and eight runs across 15 post-All-Star-break contests.

EDGE Analysis

The performance marked Goldschmidt's third two-hit tally in the last six games alone and pushed his season slash line to an impressive .272/.342/.454 (433 plate appearances).
