Cardinals second baseman Matt Carpenter had a productive day at the plate as he reached base five times in Thursday's 6-5 win in extras over the Pirates.

Carpenter reached on an infield single in the opening frame. He then doubled in the fourth and tripled in a run in the fifth. He singled again in the ninth and fell a home run shy of the cycle as he went 4 for 5 with a walk, two runs scored and one RBI.

Carpenter is hitting .411 (21 for 51) with five RBI in his last 11 games. He has a .315/.385/.480 slash line with nine homers and 58 RBI in 467 at-bats.
