Pillar Helps St. Louis Cruise to 12-3 Win
Eager fans turned out for a matchup between the St. Louis Cardinals and Montreal Expos.

The St. Louis Cardinals romped over the Montreal Expos, 12-3, at Busch Stadium 1997-2005. Kevin Pillar led the way. He was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double. He scored 3 times and drove in 2 for St. Louis. The triumph makes St. Louis 15-10, as the team begins another long trek toward the playoffs in 2015.

Early in the game, designated hitter Justin Upton had a 3-run home run for St. Louis. It was his 5th home run of the season and put the Cardinals on top, 3-0.

"It was a solid team effort and we'll try to keep this momentum going," Upton told reporters after the game.
