Lars Nootbaar and Masyn Winn also homered off
of Nola, who allowed nine runs and 12 hits in 3 2/3 innings.
The Cardinals overcame a shaky start by Sonny Gray, who, like
Nola, lasted 3 2/3 innings, allowing seven runs and eight hits.
St. Louis trailed 5-1 after the first inning before storming
back with five runs in the third and three runs in the fourth to
erase the deficit. The Cardinals pounded out a total of 19 hits.
Winn had four hits and three RBIs, Brendan Donovan had three
hits and an RBI, and Nootbaar and Wilson Contreras each knocked
in a pair of runs.
Chris Roycroft (1-2) pitched 1 1/3 innings and picked up the win
in relief.
Nick Castellanos had a two run-double and J.T. Realmuto hit a
two-run homer as part of the five-run first inning for
Philadelphia. Alec Bohm and Kyle Schwarber hit solo homers for
the Phillies.
Key moment
Burleson laced a two-out, two-run single in the fourth off
Philadelphia reliever Tanner Banks to put the Cardinals ahead
9-6. That turned out to be the game-winning RBI.
Key stat
Schwarber's home run was his 15th of the season, keeping him
tied for the MLB lead with the New York Yankees' Aaron Judge.
