Braves Tagged with 5-2 Loss
The St. Louis Cardinals got a strong performance from pitcher Andrew Miller, who stymied the Atlanta offense en route to a win, 5-2, at Busch Stadium. Jordan Barraza was credited with the save for St. Louis, his 1st of the season. The Cardinals, now 7-2, have hit the ground running this season.

The game was on the line with two out in the top of the eighth inning, but Fernando Rodney didn't flinch. With runners on 1st and 2nd and Atlanta trailing 4-2, Rodney retired Ryan Klesko to end the threat. "Nothing to it," said Rodney, with a wink.
