Trout Blasts Aviators, Cardinals Take Game 4, 6-5
The St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Carolina Aviators, 6-5 in Game 4 of the Wild Card Series today. Making an impact was right fielder Mike Trout, who was 1-3 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. The win moves St. Louis into a 2-2 tie with Carolina in the series.

Trout turned the game around in the top of the eighth. That's when the St. Louis right fielder dialed up a 3-run home run. Just like that, St. Louis's 4-2 deficit turned into a 5-4 lead.

"It's a good day to be a fan after a win like that," Trout told the St. Louis Daily News.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at American Airlines Field in Charlotte.
