Rockies Popped by Cardinals, 6-4
The St. Louis Cardinals had to overcome a fine effort from Colorado pitcher Chris McMahon to win, 6-4, at Busch Stadium. McMahon went 6 innings and allowed 2 runs. Evan Phillips, credited with the save, is now 23 for 24 in save opportunities. The 4th-place Cardinals now sit at 52-54.

Had Lars Nootbaar not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Nootbaar hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 5-4, in favor of the Cardinals.

"What's not to like about a win?" said Nootbaar.
