VIDEO: Cardinals' Heyward avenges himself with leaping grab

Jason Heyward wasn't going to make the same mistake again on Sunday.

The St. Louis Cardinals outfielder - who came up short on leaping attempts Thursday and Saturday against the Cincinnati Reds - corrected the situation in the fifth inning of Sunday's contest robbing Ivan De Jesus of a home run.

The sweet grab kept the game tied at two and gave the struggling Cardinals some momentum on their way to a 9-2 victory and a much-needed win.

St. Louis has won just three out of its last 10 games and have a slim 2 1/2-game lead over the scorching-hot Pittsburgh Pirates in the National League Central.
