Paul DeJong scored on a two-out, bases-loaded passed ball
in the top of the 11th inning Monday as the St. Louis Cardinals spoiled the
Pittsburgh Pirates' home opener, 6-5.
The Cardinals loaded the bases against Steven Brault
(0-1) before a Nick Kingham pitch got away from catcher Francisco Cervelli with
Yairo Munoz at bat.
St. Louis erased a four-run deficit before Colin Moran's
solo homer in the eighth gave Pittsburgh a 5-4 lead.
In the top of the ninth, Cardinals pinch-hitter Jose Martinez
hit a one-out RBI double for a 5-5 tie.
Kolten Wong hit a two-run homer and Tyler O'Neill hit an
RBI single for the Cardinals. Jordan Hicks (1-1) pitched two innings, and John
Gant pitched a scoreless 11th for his first save.
St. Louis starter Adam Wainwright gave up four hits, four
runs and four walks in four innings, with three strikeouts.
Moran also had a two-run double, and Josh Bell had two
RBIs for Pittsburgh.
Pirates right-hander Chris Archer struck out eight over
five scoreless innings. He allowed two hits and three walks.
In the first, Wainwright walked the first two batters.
Bell hit a one-out grounder to drive in a run. Moran's double to right made it
3-0.
Pittsburgh made it 4-0 in the third. Starling Marte led
off with a single, went to third on Corey Dickerson's double and scored on
Bell's sacrifice fly.
Wong cut the deficit in half, 4-2, in the seventh with a
shot to right off Richard Rodriguez. Following Harrison Bader's infield hit,
O'Neill reached on Moran's error at third, chasing Rodriguez. Francisco Liriano
walked Matt Carpenter to load the bases.
Reliever Keone Kela entered and walked Paul Goldschmidt
to bring in a run, making it 4-3.
In the eighth against Nick Burdi, O'Neill tied it at 4
with a two-out single to left to bring home Munoz, who led off the inning with
an infield hit and advanced on a wild pitch.
Home plate umpire Jerry Layne left in the bottom of the
seventh after taking a foul tip off his mask. Vic Carapazza replaced him.
Carapazza ejected Carpenter in the 11th for arguing a third strike.
PITTSBURGH FIZZLES
Colin Moran went
2 for 3 with three RBI, including a solo home run in the bottom of the eighth
that put the Pirates up 5-4. Josh Bell drove
in two runs for Pittsburgh, and Chris Archer struck
out eight and allowed just two hits in five shutout innings in his 2019 debut.
Archer exited with a 4-0 lead only to watch the bullpen
give it away as the Pirates dropped their home opener for the first time since
2014. Six of Pittsburgh's seven relievers allowed at least one
baserunner. Richard
Rodriguez allowed his second home run in as many appearances when
Wong took him deep in the seventh. Closer Felipe
Vazquez stranded the go-ahead run at second base to end the
eighth but then gave up Jose Martinez's
game-tying double with one out in the eighth.
A pair of late errors -- one by Moran at third base in the
seventh, another by shortstop Erik Gonzalez in
the ninth- gave St. Louis life.
WOBBLY WAINO
St. Louis starter Adam
Wainwright, hoping to bounce back after an injury-plagued 2018,
struggled with his command. The 37-year-old walked four -- three in the first
inning alone -- and gave up four runs on four hits in four innings while
throwing just 37 of his 73 pitches for strikes.
TRAINER'S ROOM
CARDINALS:
RF Dexter Fowler left
in the bottom of the seventh shortly after getting hit in the left foot with a
pitch. Schidt said X-rays on the foot were negative and Fowler is day-to-day.
... IF Jedd Gyorko should
be ready to return from a strained right calf in time for Thursday's home
opener against San Diego.
UP NEXT
CARDINALS: Miles Mikolas (0-1,
9.00 ERA) will make his second start of the season when the teams meet on
Wednesday. The 30-year-old allowed five runs in five innings in a loss to
Milwaukee on opening day.
PIRATES: Jameson
Taillon (0-1, 6.00) is 3-1 with a 3.42 ERA in eight career
starts against St. Louis.
