 That's the nature of those small leads, right? Always a bloop and a blast. Not that Darnot necessarily blooped it into left, but just a base hit can set up the potential tying run of the plate, and Eddie Rosario able to deliver. So 2-2 game going to the 8th. Nothing comes across. 2-2 going to the 9th. The Cardinals did manage to get Lars Neutbar on base. He got into scoring position on a wild pitch with two outs by Rysell Iglesias, but Pedro Pajes was called out on strikes to end the top of the 9th inning.
