Cardinals starting pitcher Joe Kelly bounced back from a slow start and left Game 1 of the National League Championship Series against the Dodgers Friday night with a no-decision.

Kelly surrendered a two-run single to Juan Uribe in the third inning for his only damage of the night. He settled down the rest of the way through, as he yielded only two runs on six hits and two walks while striking out five over six innings of work. He has allowed five runs -- four earned -- over 11 1/3 innings this postseason.
