The St. Louis Cardinals defeated Texas by a score of 8-2 on Saturday. Paul DeJong provided significant offensive power, hitting a home run and achieving a season-high four runs batted in. A key play that sparked a decisive inning for the Cardinals was Matt Carpenter's opposite-field double which struck the very top of the outfield wall. This contest marked St. Louis getting their first victory over the Rangers in this series.
