ST. LOUIS (AP) -- The Los Angeles Dodgers were hitless through five innings, but they had made Michael Wacha work.
In the sixth, everything fell into place.
Yasmani Grandal's three-run homer capped a four-run rally off a pitcher who had been perfect and the Dodgers prevailed for a rain-soaked 5-1 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Saturday night.
''We did take really good at-bats,'' Grandal said. ''We had guys who kept battling and walking, so that was a plus. That could have been something that factored into him having that big of a pitch count.
