Game Summary
St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 7-1. The Cardinals prevailed thanks to timely hitting — a four-run fifth inning that turned a 1-1 game into a decisive lead — and a strong start from Kyle Leahy, who worked five innings, allowed one earned run and struck out six. Alec Burleson drove in three runs, Nathan Church added two RBIs, and Iván Herrera scored twice while contributing an RBI. The turning point came in the bottom of the fifth when Herrera’s RBI single ignited a four-run burst highlighted by Burleson’s two-run double and Jordan Walker’s run-scoring double. Leahy received the win and Gordon Graceffo spun 1.2 scoreless innings in relief.
