Dodgers Use Late-Game Magic to Beat Cardinals, 5-2
The Los Angeles Dodgers took St. Louis pitcher Ross Stripling's best shot and still were able to claim a win at Busch Stadium. The final score had Los Angeles getting past the Cardinals, 5-2. Stripling went 6 innings and allowed 1 run, striking out 7. Josh Sborz converted his 2nd save in 4 tries. With the victory, the Dodgers upped their record to 69-55.

Paul Goldschmidt came through with a big-time hit for Los Angeles. The first baseman smacked a 3-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 4-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"I thought we played a nice game," Goldschmidt told the Los Angeles Daily News. "Good pitching, timely hitting, it was all there."
