Miami's Giancarlo Stanton was hitless in his first two at-bats in a major league game since being struck in the face by a pitch last September, and Jason Heyward singled in his first at-bat with the St. Louis Cardinals, a 4-1 victory over the Marlins on Thursday. Stanton wore a helmet with a partial face mask that protected the left side of his face, where he broke his orbital bone and damaged several teeth when he was hit by a pitch from Mike Fiers that ended his season. Acquired in an offseason trade with Atlanta, Heyward's spot in the Cardinals' lineup has been a popular topic of speculation. He scored on a two-run bloop single by Matt Adams off Dan Haren, who was making his first appearance for the Marlins after being acquired in an offseason deal with the Dodgers.
