Behind a solid performance from designated hitter Juan García, the St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Cleveland Guardians, 13-4. García was 2-4 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 3 for the Cardinals. Emilio Ferrebus got the save, the 1st for him this season. The win has St. Louis at 8-9.

Avery Romero had a big grand slam home run for the Cardinals in the bottom of the fifth inning. With St. Louis leading 5-4 and the bases loaded, he sized up a changeup from 29-year old left-handed pitcher Yonathan Ramirez and punished it. The result was his 3rd home run of the season, which put the Cardinals on top, 9-4.

"We'll kick back tonight, then get set for the next one," García said.
