Allen Craig was sore a day after his base-running adventure to end Game 3 of the World Series, but the Cardinals expect him to be available.
Manager Mike Matheny said Sunday that X-rays showed no additional injury.
Craig played DH the first two games, his first action since a sprained ligament in his left foot on Sept. 4.
