Cardinals Rally For 3-2 Win
Busch Stadium was the site of a tense game between the Boston Red Sox and St. Louis Cardinals.

Boston got a terrific performance from pitcher Gavin Stone, but it wasn't enough to beat the St. Louis Cardinals. St. Louis won the Busch Stadium contest, 3-2. Stone threw 7.0 innings allowing 1 runs for the losing team. Jalen Beeks picked up the win in relief, improving his record to 1-3. Kenley Jansen was tagged with the loss.

The game was at a stalemate until catcher Willson Contreras came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Boston pitcher Kenley Jansen, he hit a 1-2 sinker for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting St. Louis on top, 3-2.

"I'll probably toss and turn tonight," Boston manager Joe Curtis said following the tough loss.

The third-place Cardinals improved to 22-24.
