The Cardinals and Reds played a tightly contested, back-and-forth affair Sunday afternoon, but ultimately the Cardinals ended up on the short end of the stick.
After blowing a 4-0 lead, the Cardinals could not rally in the ninth to earn their second walk-off in three games and fell to the Reds 5-4. Second baseman Kolten Wong started off the ninth with a lead-off single, and eventually reached third base, but the Cardinals could not bring him around to score.
"Tough loss today," manager Mike Matheny said succinctly.
The loss dropped the Cardinals back to .500 at 12-12.
