Adam Wainwright made one final appearance in his 18-year big league career, striking out as a pinch hitter on Sunday in the St. Louis Cardinals’ 4-3 season-ending win to the Cincinnati Reds. "When I left the dugout today for the last time ever with a bat and wearing my spikes, that’s a pretty good way for me to go out,” Wainwright said.
