Rookie Darick Hall added the go-ahead home run, Kyle Schwarber
contributed two hits and an RBI and Mickey Moniak had an RBI
double for Philadelphia.
Phillies starter Bailey Falter lasted only four innings in
filling in for injured Zach Eflin, allowing five hits and three
runs to go along with five strikeouts and one walk.
Jose Alvarado (2-1) earned the win in relief and Brad Hand
picked up his third save in four chances after throwing a
scoreless ninth inning.
Nolan Arenado hit for the cycle and knocked in three runs. It
was the second cycle of his career.
Arenado tripled in the first inning, hit a two-run home run in
the third, doubled in the sixth and singled in the eighth. It
was the 17th cycle in the history of the Cardinals and first
since 2005.
Paul Goldschmidt also had two hits and scored twice.
Cardinals starter Miles Mikolas (5-6) tossed 5 1/3 innings and
gave up six hits and four runs, two earned. He struck out one
and walked two.
The Cardinals went ahead 1-0 in the first inning when Arenado
ripped a two-out RBI triple off the wall in left-center field.
Arenado then crushed a two-run homer to left in the third for a
3-0 advantage.
The Phillies scored three runs in the fifth to tie the game at
3. Moniak hit an RBI double to snap an 0-for-10 slump, Schwarber
followed with an RBI groundout and Hoskins added a sacrifice
fly.
Arenado doubled to open the sixth but never advanced further,
with Alvarado getting two big strikeouts.
The Phillies took a 4-3 lead in the bottom of the sixth when
Hall launched a solo homer, his third in the last two games
since having his contract selected from Triple-A Lehigh Valley
earlier in the week.
Hoskins hit a solo homer to left off Johan Oviedo immediately
after a pitching change with one out in the seventh for a 5-3
advantage.
Arenado achieved the cycle when he hit an infield single in the
eighth which Matt Vierling bobbled at third. But it was ruled a
hit and a throwing error.
