ST. LOUIS — The St. Louis Cardinals needed a big hit, and Dexter Fowler delivered — again.
Fowler hit a three-run homer and Adam Wainwright tossed five solid innings, leading St. Louis to a 6-5 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday.
The Cardinals have won three in a row since a season-high seven-game losing streak.
Daniel Nava homered for the Phillies, who have dropped five in a row.
Philadelphia led 2-0 before Fowler connected against Aaron Nola (3-4) in the fifth inning. Eight of Fowler's nine homers in his first season with St. Louis have given his team the lead.
