The St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates by the score of 11-1, with the biggest share of the credit going to center fielder Jason Heyward. Heyward slugged 2 home runs. He scored 4 times and drove in 2 for the Cardinals on the day. The Cardinals now have a record of 39-49 with the win over Pittsburgh.

St. Louis won the game in part because of Michael Conforto. The left fielder ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Cardinals ahead, 4-0. For the game, Conforto had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"Today was a lot of fun," said Conforto.
