Castro hits 2 home runs in St. Louis Win
St. Louis second baseman Starlin Castro played a vital role in his team's 10-8 conquest of New York. He slugged 2 home runs. He drove in 6 runs and scored twice for St. Louis. Edward Mujica closed the game out for St. Louis, earning his 29th save. The first-place Cardinals, at 60-39, lead the NL Central Division by 2 games.

The game was all tied up in the top of the ninth, until Castro delivered big-time for St. Louis, stroking a dramatic 2-run home run off Brandon Beachy. The game-changing hit put the Cardinals on top, 10-8.

"Very good win for our guys," said Castro.
