DOTHAN, Alabama (WDHN) — In a remarkable night for Major League Baseball on Tuesday, Brendan Donovan, a standout second baseman for the St. Louis Cardinals, achieved a historic feat.
Originally sidelined due to “groin stiffness” from an earlier injury, the former Enterprise resident dedicated himself to rigorous preparation throughout the day. Just two hours before game time, he alerted the Cardinals’ manager of his readiness to play, prompting a last-minute lineup change.
Donovan went on to make a significant impact, tying an MLB record with four doubles and contributing to the Cardinals’ thrilling 9-8 victory against the San Francisco Giants. At 28, Donovan’s journey from Germany to Enterprise has made him a player to watch in the league.
