St. Louis was held scoreless for the first eight innings before mounting a comeback in the bottom of the ninth inning. The Cardinals got the tying and go-ahead runs on the bases with only one out, but the rally ended with a strikeout and a groundout to the pitcher.
Carlos Beltran went 0-3 at the plate, while Matt Holliday was 0-2. The Cardinals will play the Mets on Tuesday.
