It was a tough loss for the St. Louis Cardinals, who held a lead for all but the final two batters of the game.
The St. Louis Cardinals started this game off with a bang as Dexter Fowler took the first pitch over the fence for a home run. Tommy Pham then followed with his first home run of the season. It was the first time the St. Louis Cardinals started a game with back-to back home runs since April 26, 2013 vs the Pirates (Matt Carpenter and Carlos Beltran).
