Ethier 3-4, Leads Cardinals to Win
The St. Louis Cardinals topped the Atlanta Braves by the score of 6-2, with the biggest share of the credit going to left fielder Andre Ethier. Ethier was 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 3 runs and drove in 2 for the Cardinals on the day. St. Louis has run its win streak to 4 in a row.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Mark Teixeira? The St. Louis first baseman had a run-scoring single in the top of the sixth inning to put the Cardinals on top, 3-2. For the game, Teixeira had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"We'll enjoy this win," said Teixeira. "But there's more we hope to accomplish."
