The Cardinals' Adam Wainwright pitched scoreless ball for five innings, allowing just two hits and Miami righthander Jose Urena has worked five innings, permitting just one hit.
The Cardinals' hit was not by Wainwright, who is the Cardinals' first pitcher to bat this spring. Instead, it was by Dexter Fowler, who got an infield hit to third base on a checked swing, raising his average to.100 on thee for 30.
