Lifts homer in loss
Bernal went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Saturday's 6-5 loss to the White Sox.
Analyse
Bernal has an extra-base hit in each of his last three games, going 5-for-13 with six RBI in that span. The catcher has hit safely in 10 of his 11 major-league games so far, showing decent plate discipline with a 4:8 BB:K. He's batting .311 with three homers, 13 RBI, eight runs scored and two doubles across 49 plate appearances.

Swats second homer
Bernal went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Wednesday's 7-6 loss to the Giants.
Analyse
In his ninth career MLB game, Bernal nearly put a ball into the ocean at Oracle Park, launching a Blade Tidwell fastball over the right-field wall in the third inning. The rookie catcher has looked good since his September promotion, batting .278 (10-for-36) with a double, two homers, six runs and 10 RBI. St. Louis' system is stacked when it comes to catching -- Ivan Herrera continues to split his time between defensive duties and DH, while Rainiel Rodriguez has made it to Double-A as a 19-year-old and Jimmy Crooks is stuck at Triple-A despite a .994 OPS this season for Memphis -- but Bernal is making a strong case to be part of the picture behind the plate in 2027.
