Today was a good day at Busch, but I’d be lying if I said my heart wasn’t pounding for a small chunk of the contest.
The Dodgers got on the board first, with J.D. Martinez doubling home Mookie Betts and Will Smith, taking a 2-0 lead.
It wouldn’t be long before the Cardinals retaliated, with Willson Contreras unloading for his first of two three-run homers to give St. Louis a 3-2 lead; the boys in Red never looked back.
The assault continued in the third inning, with Juan Yepez uncorking for a solo shot of his own.
