Paul DeJong went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI on Wednesday in a blowout win in Game 5 of the NLDS over the Braves.

DeJong doubled in a run in the second inning off of Max Fried to make it 11-0, and he extended the lead to 13-0 in the third when he roped a single into center. He also drew a walk, so it was a three-reach day for the 26-year-old shortstop. We'll see DeJong again on Friday in the NLCS against either the Dodgers or Nationals.

Paul DeJong connected for his 30th homer of the season Saturday against the Cubs.

DeJong went 1-for-4 on the night, taking Pedro Strop deep for a solo shot in the eighth inning. The 26-year-old has hit six homers this month to reach the 30-mark, but he’s batted just .179 in the process. Even with the big power numbers, he’s hit just .234 with a .762 OPS. Fortunately, he provides plenty of value to the Cardinals with his defense at shortstop.
