Cardinals starting pitcher Lance Lynn cruised through seven strong innings Friday, in a 5-2 win over the Cardinals.
Lynn actually fell behind early, and was down after four innings, before a big rally in the fifth got him up for good. He limited the Braves to two runs in his seven innings of work, on seven hits, six of which fell in for singles. He struck out three batters and walked two while throwing 69 of 110 pitches for strikes.
Lynn is now 5-2 after the win, snapping a three-start winless streak. He carries a 3.67 ERA into his net outing, set for Thursday against the Diamondbacks.
