Kipnis Heroics Not Enough in 11-5 Loss to St. Louis
The St. Louis Cardinals overcame a good performance by New York second baseman Jason Kipnis to knock off New York, 11-5, at Shea Stadium 1979-2008. Kipnis went 3-4 with 2 home runs and a walk. He drove in 5 runs and scored twice. Kris Medlen finished to wrap up his 1st save. St. Louis has run its win streak to 4 straight.

St. Louis used the hitting of Matt Olson to pick up the win. The first baseman clubbed a solo home run in the top of the third inning to put the Cardinals on top, 2-0. For the game, Olson had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"We maximized our offense today," said St. Louis skipper AU Cards. "That makes everyone's life easier."
