ST LOUIS -- Carlos Martinez pitched eight innings of one-run ball and Dexter Fowler clobbered a go-ahead solo homer off Ross Stripling in the bottom of the eighth as the Cardinals snapped the Dodgers' six-game win streak Wednesday night at Busch Stadium.
The homer -- which traveled a projected 429 feet, according to Statcast™ -- came on a day when the offensive production was few and far between, at least until the starters left the game. Martinez delivered his seventh straight quality start, slicing his way through the Dodgers' lineup and only allowing one run in eight innings.
