Darryl Kile (11-7) twirled eight shutout innings, allowing just eight hits while striking out eight, leading the St. Louis Cardinals past the Atlanta Braves 4-0 on Wednesday. At the plate, Mark McGwire hit a two-run home run in the sixth inning. The blast was McGwire’s 19th of the season and the 573rd of his career. That ties him with Harmon Killebrew for 5th on the all-time list. St. Louis has won the first two gams in this series with the Braves, they go for the sweep tonight.
