Odubel Herrera’s Solo Homer Lifts Phillies To 4-3 Win Over Cardinals

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — The Philadelphia Phillies beat the St. Louis Cardinals 4-3 on Wednesday, with help from Odubel Herrera and Cesar Hernandez.

Yadier Molina hit a pair of homers for the Cardinals, who lost starter Michael Wacha to injury. Both came off Phillies starter Jake Arrieta.

Philadelphia’s beleaguered bullpen tossed three scoreless innings after Arrieta had another so-so outing. Edubray Ramos (2-0) got five outs and Adam Morgan retired the last two batters with the tying run on second for his first career save.

The Phillies took two of three to win a series against the Cardinals for the first time since August 2014.
