Walker's hit streak reaches 11 games as Cardinals win 5-3 over Guardians

Nathan Church had three hits, Alec Burleson had two RBIs and Jordan Walker extended his hitting streak to 11 games as the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Cleveland Guardians 5-3 on Wednesday.

Dustin May (2-2) allowed one run on six hits and a walk and had four strikeouts in six innings, and Riley O’Brien pitched a perfect ninth to earn his fifth save and help St. Louis win its second straight game.

Slade Cecconi allowed one run on three hits but surrendered a career-high five walks and threw 87 pitches in four innings for Cleveland, which lost consecutive games for the first time this season.

In the first inning, Ramírez grounded into a fielder’s choice in his franchise-record 6,040th career at bat to break Nap LaJoie’s 112-year-old record.

Walker lined a double to left field in the eighth inning to extend his hitting streak.

The Cardinals' RHP Kyle Leahy (1-2, 5.14) will start against the Houston Astros who have not named a starter Friday night to open a six-game road trip.
