Cards come up short in bid to sweep the Braves

September 19, 2018 By Bill Pollock

Freddie Freeman hit a two-run homer and drove in three runs, Touki Toussaint pitched into the sixth inning and the NL East-leading Atlanta Braves snapped a four-game skid with a 7-3 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday.

Jack Flaherty (8-8) gave up five hits, five runs and two walks in 4 2/3 innings as St. Louis, which had won three straight, began the day leading Colorado by 1 1/2 games for the second wild-card spot.

After a day off, the Cardinals return home for a three-game series with the San Francisco Giants.  Only nine games remain on the schedule.  The Cardinals then host Milwaukee for three games next Monday-Wednesday before finishing the season at Chicago.
