ST. LOUIS -- Eric Fryer's two-out RBI double in the bottom of the eighth inning lifted the Cardinals to a 4-3 victory over the Reds on Sunday afternoon and gave them two of three in the series. Cincinnati will return home having lost five of its six games on the road trip.
When the Cardinals summoned Aledmys Diaz to pinch-hit and lead off the eighth, the Reds removed left-handed reliever Tony Cingrani in favor of right-hander Ross Ohlendorf. Diaz drew the walk before Ohlendorf picked up the next two outs.
