Paul DeJong hit a two-run homer and drove in three runs on Wednesday to lead the St. Louis Cardinals to a 6-3 win as 10 Kansas City pitchers walked nine Cardinal hitters and hit another in the game. Carlos Martinez and Miles Mikolas each went four innings in the only pre-season warm-up for the Cardinals. The Royals lost all three of their pre-season games. The regular season starts Friday night as St. Louis will host Pittsburgh and Kansas City will be at Cleveland to face the Indians.
