St. Louis Cardinals: Comparing Matt Carpenter to Ben Zobrist

St. Louis Cardinals fans new coming into the 2013 season that utility infielder Matt Carpenter could swing the bat. What they didn't know was how he would fare in the field.

That does not sound like much, but with an overall ace...

What fans couldn't have known at that time was how impressive of a performance they were about to put up.
