With the Cardinals leading 9-8 with one out in
the ninth, the Marlins had runners on first and second. Hicks
fielded Joey Wendle's soft grounder and had plenty of time to
make the play at first, but he double-clutched and threw over
Paul Goldschmidt's head as Garrett Hampson and Yuli Gurriel
scored.
The Marlins also got three RBIs from Garrett Cooper, and Bryan
De La Cruz went 3-for-4 with two RBIs and two runs.
Nolan Arenado led the Cardinals by going 3-for-5 with three
doubles, two RBIs and two runs. St. Louis also got a two-run
homer from Nolan Gorman and three hits from Brendan Donovan.
Neither starting pitcher earned a decision.
The Cardinals' Matthew Liberatore lasted just one-third of an
inning, allowing four runs on five hits. Miami's Bryan Hoeing
surrendered five runs on five hits in three innings after
wasting a 5-0 lead.
In the bottom of the first, Miami's first five batters reached.
An RBI single from De La Cruz, Cooper's two-run double and Dane
Myers' run-scoring single gifted the Marlins a 4-0 lead by the
end of the frame.
Miami extended its lead to 5-0 in the second as Jean Segura drew
a bases-loaded walk.
St. Louis tied the score in the third. Arenado slugged a two-run
double before Willson Contreras slapped a run-scoring double and
Gorman followed with his homer.
Miami regained the lead, 6-5, on Jacob Stallings' solo homer in
the bottom of the third. St. Louis tied the score on
Goldschmidt's run-scoring, double-play grounder in the fourth.
In the sixth, Jorge Soler walked and scored from first on De La
Cruz's double. Cooper's single drove in De La Cruz for an 8-6
lead.
The Cardinals cut their deficit to 8-7 in the seventh as Arenado
doubled and scored on Contreras' single.
With St. Louis down to its final strike in the top of the ninth,
Jordan Walker gave the Cardinals a 9-8 lead with a two-run
homer.
Miami then rallied to beat Hicks (1-5). A.J. Puk (4-2) notched
the win despite giving up two runs in the ninth inning.
