ST. LOUIS (AP) — Jason Heyward atoned for a critical error with a game-tying homer leading off the ninth inning and the St. Louis Cardinals scored the winning run on catcher Jordan Pachecho’s throwing error, completing a three-game sweep with a 4-3 victory on Wednesday night.

Mark Trumbo homered for Arizona, which has lost nine of its last 10 against the Cardinals. The Diamondbacks have re-tooled with former Cardinals Tony La Russa as chief baseball officer, pitching consultant Dave Duncan and first base coach Dave McKay.

Pacheco replaced Tuffy Gosewisch, who jammed his left knee on a groundout in the sixth. Third baseman Yasmany Tomas threw home for a force out on Jhonny Peralta’s grounder against Brad Ziegler (0-1) and Pachecho tried for a double play but threw well above first baseman Paul Goldschmidt’s head.

Seth Maness (1-0) got the last two outs of the ninth for St. Louis to get the victory.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (AP) — Former St. Louis Cardinals manager Tony La Russa has been named a Missouri sports legend. The Missouri Sports Hall of Fame on Wednesday also unveiled a bronze sculpture of La Russa, the Arizona Diamondbacks chief baseball officer.

La Russa, inducted into the Hall of Fame last summer, led St. Louis to two World Series titles, three NL pennants and eight division titles.

ST. LOUIS (AP) – Cardinals pitching prospect Marco Gonzales won’t throw for about three weeks because of a shoulder injury. St. Louis general manager John Mozeliak said Tuesday an MRI showed the 23-year-old left-hander has an impingement. Gonzales is on the roster of Triple-A Memphis, and he skipped a start in late April.

Mozeliak says Gonzales will be re-evaluated in a week to 10 days. Selected with the 19th overall pick in the 2013 amateur draft, Gonzales was among the spring-training contenders for the fifth starting. Gonzales was 4-2 with a 4.19 ERA in five starts for St. Louis last year and pitched in relief in the postseason. He is 0-1 with a 6.35 ERA in six minor league starts this year.

ST. LOUIS (AP) – Jaime Garcia won for the first time in nearly a year, working six solid innings, and Randal Grichuk homered for the St. Louis Cardinals, who beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 6-4 on Tuesday night. Grichuk and Jhonny Peralta had two RBIs each for the Cardinals, who are a major league-best 30-16. Garcia (1-1) hadn’t won since June 15 at home against the Nationals.

Rookie Yasmany Tomas had two doubles and three RBIs for Arizona, but also made two big outs. He struck out against Matt Belisle with the bases loaded to end the seventh and hit a ground ball for the final out with the tying runs in scoring position against Seth Maness, who earned his third save in four chances. Nick Ahmed homered for the Diamondbacks, who have lost eight of their last nine against St. Louis.

Matt Adams of the St. Louis Cardinals strained his right quadriceps while running out a double in the fifth inning and has been removed from the game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Adams grabbed his right hip area rounding first base after his hit off reliever Vidal Nuno on Tuesday night. Mark Reynolds pinch ran for Adams.
