St. Louis 5-4 Victors at PNC Park
The St. Louis Cardinals bested the Pittsburgh Pirates by a score of 5-4, with designated hitter Francisco Mondragon getting the main credit. On the day, Mondragon went 3 for 5 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 for the Cardinals. St. Louis is now 79-83.

Had Sam Penfold not delivered a key base hit in the top of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Penfold hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 5-4, in favor of the Cardinals.

"Every time you put a 'W' on the board is always good," said Mondragon.
