The St. Louis Cardinals rallied in the 8th inning to tie the game, 5-5, only to have the Royals capitalize on an error by Paul Goldschmidt in the 9th inning Sunday night on a hit by Nikki Lopez to win the game, 6-5 after having over a two-hour rain delay. Dylan Carlson homered and drove in two runs for St. Louis who won Friday night, 4-2, and then on Saturday, 5-2. The Cardinals will be off today while the Kansas City Royals will start a three-game series against the New York Yankees in Kansas City.
