Burleson Hits 100 RBIs, Still Learning at the Plate | St. Louis Cardinals News

Alec Burleson just hit his 100th RBI of the season — a rare feat for a lefty Cardinal, joining legends like Jim Edmonds and Keith Hernandez — and he’s thriving as the team’s offensive anchor after stepping into first base full-time. Hitting for average with power and doubles, he’s quietly becoming one of the league’s top RBI producers. Humble about the milestone, Burleson admits he’s still working on pitch selection and recognizing pitcher strategies, especially when they try to exploit his ability to crush pitches outside the zone. But with his bat consistently in the zone and his approach sharpening, he’s proving he’s not just a hitter — he’s a developing strategist who’s helping carry this team.
