St. Louis Cardinals (65-63) 0 0 0 0 3 2 0 0 0 5 7 1

Twins Lose at Home, 5-1
St. Louis pitcher Ross Stripling had a large part in his team subduing the Minnesota Twins, 5-1. The opposition could never mount much of a rally against the right-hander. Cody Morris notched his 11th save in 12 chances. With the win, St. Louis upped its record to 65-63.

St. Louis used a clutch at-bat from Mookie Betts to capture the win. The right fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Cardinals ahead, 3-0. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"I like the roll we're on," said St. Louis manager Jason B.
