Cardinals Score Late, Top Royals, 7-5
St. Louis and Kansas City duked it out and the Cardinals came out victorious.

The St. Louis Cardinals took Kansas City pitcher Asa Lacy's best shot and still were able to claim a win at Kauffman Stadium. The final score had St. Louis getting past the Royals, 7-5. Lacy went 5.1 innings and allowed 3 runs, striking out 13. St. Louis reliever Trevor Megill picked up the win, upping his record to 5-4. Angel Zerpa took the loss. Ryan Helsley earned the save for St. Louis, his 25th of the year.

St. Louis used a clutch hit from Jordan Walker to get the win. The designated hitter drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Cardinals ahead, 7-5. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it was a doozy.

"It's nice to come out on top today," said Walker.

The first-place Cardinals are 65-53.
