Cardinals Bang Out 6-4 Win Versus Kansas City
St. Louis designated hitter Jose Alberto Martinez was a significant contributor in his team's 6-4 triumph over the Kansas City Royals. He was 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for St. Louis. Marcos Molina picked up the win, improving his season record to 9-6. He struck out 1 in 6 innings. Zack Littell, credited with the save, is now 3 for 9 in save opportunities.

St. Louis relied on the hitting of Matt Olson to pick up the win. The first baseman ripped a 2-run triple in the top of the first inning to put the Cardinals on top, 2-0. For the game, Olson had 1 triple and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"It was a solid team effort and we'll try to keep this momentum going," Olson told reporters after the game.

St. Louis has now won 3 in a row.
