The Associated PressIn what's shaping up as a pitcher's duel, the Cardinals went up 1-0 against the Pirates with a third-inning run.
Greg Garcia led off the inning with the Cardinals' first hit, a bloop double down the left-field line. Garcia took third on Alex Mejia's groundout to short and pitcher Luke Weaver followed with a broken-bat grounder to third that brought home Garcia with the game's first run.
