Cardinals starter Michael Wacha was dominant, up until the sixth inning in Saturday's start against the Dodgers. Through the first five innings, Wacha was tossing no-hit baseball.
But, Justin Turner led off the sixth with a double and scored on an RBI-single by Howie Kendrick two batters later. Yasmani Grandal capped off the big inning with a three-run home run to put the Dodgers on top 4-1. The Dodgers would go on to win by a score of 5-1.
Overall, Wacha went 5 2/3 innings, allowing four runs on three hits. He walked three and struck out seven, increasing his ERA to 2.27. Wacha did have to warm up on two separate occasions before the game began, as the start of the game was delayed more than two hours due to rain.
He'll look to get back in the win column in his next start, scheduled for Thursday in a re-match with the Dodgers in Los Angeles.
