Reliever Sixto Sanchez (0-1) allowed three runs, two of them earned, and retired just one batter to take the loss. Down by two, the Cardinals used a five-run eighth inning to take over. With one out, Paul Goldschmidt reached on an error, and Nolan Arenado and Herrera followed with singles to produce one run. Andrew Nardi relieved Sanchez and allowed a two-run double by Gorman, an RBI single by Alec Burleson and a run-scoring triple by Masyn Winn. Herrera hit his first big-league homer leading off the second inning to put the Cardinals up 1-0. The Marlins responded in the fourth inning with Burger's leadoff homer. Miami powered up in the fifth inning to take a 4-1 lead. Luis Arraez hit a single, then Bell and Burger belted back-to-back homers. St. Louis cut its deficit to 4-3 in the bottom on the inning. After Michael Siani was hit by a pitch, Victor Scott II reached on a throwing error that put the runners on second and third.
