CINCINNATI • _ Kolten Wong ripped the Cardinals' fourth homer of the night in the seventh inning Friday night as the Cardinals reached a season high in runs at 13 against the Cincinnati Reds, leading 13-3. The homer was the 50th of his career for Wong, who has nine this season.
After pounding three homers off Cincinnati starter Luis Castillo in the first five innings Friday night, the Cardinals had something different for former Cardinals reliever Matt Bowman in the sixth.
They scored four runs on an infield single by Yadier Molina on which Bowman fell trying to field it, and outfield singles by Wong, Dexter Fowler, Tommy Edman and Paul Goldschmidt plus an outfield error.
