Cardinals match MLB postseason record with 10 runs in first

ATLANTA -- Fans were barely in their seats before the St. Louis Cardinals made history, scoring 10 runs in the first inning of their decisive Game 5 between them and the hometown Atlanta Braves.

It's the most runs scored in an inning in league division play history and is tied for the most in one inning in postseason history.

Braves starter Mike Foltynewicz lasted just 0.1 of an inning while giving up seven runs on three hits and three walks after giving up no runs on three hits over seven innings in Game 2.
