The Atlanta Braves, down 3-0, rallied for three runs charged to Cardinals closer Jordan Hicks in the ninth and then scurried out of town with a 4-3 victory in 10 innings Sunday night at Busch Stadium when lefthander Tyler Webb, the seventh of eight St. Louis pitchers, walked home the lead run in the 10th.
The Cardinals failed to win a series for the seventh consecutive series and, if they are unable to win two games in succession out of the three they have left in May, they will match the 1903 club, which then was called the Browns, who probably had a large number of months in their American League history when they didn’t win two successive games.
