ST. LOUIS -- Miles Mikolas of the St. Louis Cardinals narrowly missed a no-hitter against the Pittsburgh Pirates in the second game of a doubleheader Tuesday night.
Mikolas allowed an unearned run and just one hit in St. Louis' 9-1 victory, which completed the sweep for the home team.
Pittsburgh notched the run in the fourth inning, when Bryan Reynolds scored on Daniel Vogelbach's groundout. Reynolds led off the inning and reached second base when left fielder Juan Yepez misplayed a fly ball for an error.
