Cardinals Topple Nationals, 4-1
St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Steven Matz was all business, helping his team muzzle the Washington Nationals, 4-1. Giovanny Gallegos earned the save, his 44th. The loss makes Washington 53-80.

The Cardinals beat the Nationals with some clutch hitting. The single by Tyler O'Neill in the bottom of the seventh is a good example. With two down, O'Neill gave his team the lead, 2-1, when he came through with the big hit.

"Steven is tough when he's hitting his spots," said St. Louis manager Mike Shore.
