MLB.com: St. Louis to call up Matt Adams Posted on May 19, 2012 by Kary Booher

Matt Adams, the Texas League’s MVP last year when he hit 32 home runs and drove in 101 runs for Double-A Springfield, is joining the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday in Los Angeles, according to MLB.com’s Jennifer Langosh, who covers St. Louis for the website.

First baseman Lance Berkman was removed from Saturday’s game against the Los Angeles Dodgers after apparently injuring a knee.

Adams, who bats left, was hitting .338 (47-for-139) with nine home runs, nine doubles and 27 RBIs. He has had far more success against right-handers, hitting .379, compared to .222 (8-for-36) against left-handers in the Triple-A Pacific Coast League. Adams hit two home runs and drove in five Friday night in Las Vegas.
