Bucs silenced by Wacha, drop 3 of 4 in St. Louis

ST. LOUIS -- Michael Wacha was untouchable in his one-hit performance against the Pirates on Sunday afternoon at Busch Stadium, as the Bucs fell, 5-0. Wacha had a no-hitter going until Colin Moran lined a single to right leading off the ninth inning. Wacha was removed from the game and received a standing ovation from the Cardinals' crowd.

The Pirates gave up their second four-run first inning of the series when Marcell Ozuna hit a grand slam off starter Nick Kingham. Matt Carpenter walked, Tommy Pham singled and Jose Martinez reached when Sean Rodriguez made a fielding error, setting up Ozuna for the home run.
