Cardinals Clip Pirates in Tight Contest
St. Louis Cardinals starter Lucas Giolito was in fine form against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Busch Stadium, leading his team to a 6-4 win. The Cardinals go to 66-78, putting them 4th in the National League Central Division.

The game was decided with no one out in the bottom of the ninth. With St. Louis trailing 4-3, Alex Bregman hit a fastball from Matt Bush to left for a 3-run home run. Just like that, the Cardinals had a walk-off win.

"I just tried to attack the bottom of the zone," Giolito said.
