A three-run eighth inning lifted the Reds to a 7-4 win against the Cardinals in the second of three games at Busch Stadium on Tuesday night.
Tyler Holt started the rally with a go-ahead RBI double and Zack Cozart added a one-run single, while while reliever Matt Bowman was tagged with the loss.
The Cardinals tied the game at four in the seventh when Brandon Moss drove in a run on a single. Yadier Molina and Matt Holliday each hit solo homers for St. Louis as the Cards drop a game in the Wild Card chase.
