Martinez, Goldschmidt homers put Cards ahead 3-0 in first

Belting a 92 mph fastball, just as Martinez had, Goldschmidt, seven for 13 against Pomeranz, walloped a 449-foot drive to left center for his 15th homer of the season and first since June 19.

MARTINEZ, WIETERS STAY IN LINEUP

The Cardinals’ bench will have a bit of a different look. Lefthanded-hitting Rangel Ravelo, batting .323 at Memphis with nine homers and 18 doubles, has been recalled and right-hitting Lane Thomas has been sent back. Ravelo was one for six in an earlier trial with the Cardinals while Thomas was four for 13 in two trips to the big leagues this year.
