Craig homers, Cards avoid sweep, top Pirates 5-4

Sports

July 1st, 2012 by Ric Hanson

ST. LOUIS (AP) – Allen Craig homered for the second time in three days and All-Star Yadier Molina also connected as the Cardinals beat the Pirates 5-4 on Sunday.  St. Louis avoided getting swept in a three-game series at home by Pittsburgh for the first time since 1991. Jason Motte got the last four outs for his 17th save in 21 chances to end the Pirates’ four-game winning streak. Motte was the last in a flurry of moves by rookie manager Mike Matheny that left three players seeing time at two positions.  Michael McKenry’s three-run homer capped a four-run fourth that put the Pirates ahead for the first time and also gave them a homer in nine straight games. They’ve totaled 15 homers in their longest streak since another nine-gamer in June 2008.  Next up for the Cards is the Colorado Rockies. Catch the action Monday, beginning with the pre-game show at 6:20-p.m. on KJAN. The 1st pitch is at 7:15-p.m.

Cardinals Fall to Pirates 14-5

Sports

June 30th, 2012 by admin

ST. LOUIS (AP) – Clint Barmes, pinch-hitter Alex Presley and Garrett Jones each homered in a four-run sixth inning that snapped a tie, and the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the St. Louis Cardinals 14-5 in a game that began in 101-degree heat Friday night. 
 
Andrew McCutchen had four of the Pirates’ season-high 19 hits, the last a three-run homer off Marc Rzepczynski in the ninth. McCutchen also robbed Allen Craig of a third extra-base hit with a running catch near the center field wall in the fifth. 
 
The Pirates have 38 homers this month, one off the franchise record set in 1975, and the run total was the franchise’s best since they also scored 14 on Aug. 31, 2010, at the Chicago Cubs.
 
Carlos Beltran got his 2,000th career hit on an RBI single in the third against Kevin Correia (4-6).
