St. Louis Cardinals starter Marcus Stroman pitched his team past the Pittsburgh Pirates, 2-1. Stroman got the win, improving to 14-6. He gave up 7 hits and walked 0 over 6 innings. He allowed 1 run. David Robertson got the save, his 3rd in 4 chances.

With scoring opportunities rare, the Cardinals had to cash in when they had the chance. One such opportunity presented itself in the bottom of the second, when designated hitter Moises Gomez hit a run-scoring single. The single came off Nick Pivetta and made the score 2-0, Cardinals. Gomez went 2-3 with a double.

"Whenever we hold the other team to one run," said Cardinals manager Jason B, "I like our chances."

The win gives St. Louis a season record of 78-74.
