Giants Hammered by Olson, Drop Game 4 to Cardinals
The St. Louis Cardinals defeated the San Francisco Giants, 5-2, in Game 4 of the Wild Card Series. Making an impact was first baseman Matt Olson, who was 2 for 3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. The win moves St. Louis into a 2-2 tie with San Francisco in the series.

Olson had an important at-bat with a runner on 2nd in the bottom of the seventh, when he hit a run-scoring single. The Cardinals went on to win.

Olson called the win the result of "everyone being in sync."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Busch Stadium 1997-2005 in St. Louis.
