Cardinals' Masyn Winn Involved in Car Crash Following Walkoff Win

  • On Wednesday, St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Masyn Winn was involved in a single-car accident on Interstate 64 near St. Louis due to wet pavement. The team confirmed the 24-year-old suffered no serious injuries.
  • The crash occurred hours after Winn tallied his first career walk-off RBI in the 11th inning to secure a 2-1 victory against the New York Mets at Busch Stadium. "We are grateful that he is OK," the Cardinals stated.
  • Local police and Cardinals security attended to Winn, who was alone in the vehicle. Medical staff examined him at a nearby hospital and confirmed he suffered no serious injuries, allowing the Gold Glove winner to avoid significant time away.
  • St. Louis holds a 4-2 record to start the 2026 season and relies on Winn as a centerpiece shortstop in the lineup. The team is off Thursday before opening a weekend series Friday against the Detroit Tigers.
  • The Cardinals have lost three active players to car accidents since 2002, including pitcher Darryl Kile, pitcher Josh Hancock, and prospect Oscar Taveras. Fortunately, Winn remains healthy following this latest, less severe collision.
