Cardinals Topple Nationals, 11-5, as Jung Shines
A 3-RBI performance from Jace Jung, who finished 4th in the NL in triples with 7 last year, helped the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Washington Nationals, 11-5. Domingo German was the winning pitcher. Over 6.2 innings, he allowed 4 runs on 8 hits, with no walks and 5 strikeouts. The first-place Cardinals lifted their record to 80-49.

Seung-kab Kim, the 30-year old shortstop , had a direct impact on the outcome. Kim contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the sixth inning to put St. Louis up, 4-3.

"The boys were really swinging the bats today," winning manager Zach Parkhurst said.
