Cardinals blow ninth-inning lead as Padres win in 10th

18 hours 54 minutes ago
Nick Castellanos hit a tying, two-run homer with two outs in the ninth inning and Manny Machado delivered a sacrifice fly in the 10th to rally the San Diego Padres past the St. Louis Cardinals 3-2. Walker Buehler pitched six solid innings for the Padres, who earned a split of the four-game series and pulled into a tie with the rival Los Angeles Dodgers atop the NL West. Jordan Walker launched a two-run homer for St. Louis in the fourth, and Kyle Leahy allowed only two hits in five shutout innings. Xander Bogaerts singled leading off the ninth and Castellanos connected on a full-count pitch from Cardinals closer Riley Oโ€™Brien.
