Heyward and Wong homer, Cardinals top Marlins 6-1

Sports

June 24th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

MIAMI (AP) – Jason Heyward homered for the third consecutive game, Kolten Wong added a two-run shot and the St. Louis Cardinals topped the Miami Marlins 6-1 on Wednesday night. Heyward hit a three-run homer, his ninth of the season, in the seventh to blow the game open. The Cardinals had just one hit in the first six innings against Miami starter Mat Latos (2-5), that hit being Wong’s ninth home run in the third.

Jaime Garcia (3-3) allowed one run in seven innings for the Cardinals, lowering his ERA to 1.69. Garcia singled and eventually scored in the eighth, but grimaced and began to limp shortly before crossing the plate. He came out of the game. Giancarlo Stanton had three hits, including hit his ML-leading 27th home run for the Marlins.
