Yelich strikes out and that will do it. Cardinals defeat the Brewers 4-2 and St. Louis wins the first game of a massive 5 game series with a lot of playoff implications involved. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Garcia is caught looking at a fastball on the inside part of the plate. 2 outs now for Christian Yelich. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Pinch hitter Eric Sogard goes the other way for a RBI single to left. Cardinals still lead 4-2. Two men still on and now Avi Garcia comes to the plate. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Vogelbach slaps a single to CF and suddenly there are two men on and 1 out for Eric Sogard pinch hitting for Jacob Nottingham. Cardinals manager Mike Shildt will counter with lefty Andrew Miller. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Orlando Arcia strikes out on a high fastball from Alex Reyes. 1 down in the 9th and Daniel Vogelbach pinch hitting for Luis Urias. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Jace Peterson pinch hitting for Tyrone Taylor to start the 9th and singles up the middle. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Edman hits a 2 out single but Goldschmidt grounds out and that will be all for the Cardinals in the 8th. One last chance for Milwaukee. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Brewers go down quietly in the 8th. Ray Black to pitch for Milwaukee. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Alex Reyes to come on for St. Louis after Cabrera gets Yelich on a popfly. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Justin Topa gets Fowler to strike out to end the 7th. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Yadier Molina’s single to CF in the 7th was career hit number 2,000. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Cabrera shuts down the Brewers in the 7th. After a weekend sweep of the Royals, the Brewers offense has completely disappeared this week. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Topa gets Goldschmidt looking and the game moves on to the 7th with the Cardinals holding a 4-1 lead. Genesis Cabrera coming on for the Cardinals. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Knebel exits with 2 down in the 6th. Justin Topa on to pitch for Milwaukee. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Dylan Carlson smacks a double to left center making it 4-1 Cardinals after Fowler reached on a lead off walk. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Gallegos sets the Brewers down in order in the 6th. Corey Knebel coming on to pitch for Milwaukee. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

First two batters reach against Yardley in the 5th, but gets Molina to pop up to 2B, Miller grounds into a force out, and DeJong pops up to Hiura. Giovanny Gallegos coming on for St. Louis in the 6th. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Corbin Burnes left the game with lower back discomfort. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Kim gets Braun to fly out to RF after walking Garcia and Yelich with 2 outs in the fifth. Hitting with RISP has been a big issue for the Brewers all year. At 99 pitches, that will likely be all for Kim who made it through 5 innings. @Spm385T

[Michael Tulke @MichaelTulke]

Yardley comes on to strike out Edman, but the Cardinals take a 3-1 lead to the 5th. Could prove costly for Milwaukee with the way they have been hitting this year. @Spm385T
