Cardinals Deal Cincinnati 4-3 Defeat
The 4-3 St. Louis win over Cincinnati was due in large part to Mookie Betts. The Cardinals right fielder went 2-3 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Emilio Pagan got the save, his 4th in 5 chances. The victory puts St. Louis at 48-89.

Anthony Rizzo had a direct impact on the outcome. Rizzo contributed a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put St. Louis up, 3-0.

"It's nice to deliver when your team's counting on you," said Betts.
