Cardinals Clip Aviators 7-6 in WCS Contest
|
Kyle Wright pitched well, but the Carolina Aviators lost anyway, falling 7-6 in extra innings to the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium. With the win, St. Louis tied the best-of-7 Wild Card Series at 1 games apiece. Wright was effective, giving the Aviators 8 innings and allowing 1 run.
The game ended with a bang. In the bottom of the 11th, with St. Louis trailing 6-4, Malcom Nunez jumped on a 1-0 slider from Teddy McGraw for a 3-run home run, sending the Cardinals to a walk-off win.
"It wasn't our best performance," said Nunez, "but a win in the playoffs is nothing to sniff at."
Game 3 is scheduled for Saturday at American Airlines Field in Charlotte.
