Jordan Walker singled in the fifth inning to extend his hitting streak to 13 games and Nolan Gorman had two hits and two RBIs to help the Cardinals to their fourth straight victory.

Andre Pallante (2-1) allowed three hits and a run with a season-high five strikeouts in five innings to get the win for the Cardinals. Riley O’Brien got the last two outs of the game to get his sixth save.

St. Louis LHP Matthew Liberatore (0-1, 4.29 ERA) opposes RHP Mike Burrows (1-3, 6.55) in the series finale Sunday.
