The St. Louis Cardinals beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 10-5 following a dominant performance from Oscar Mercado, who hit five runs and got three out of four at-bats, tying his career-high in RBIs, and Paul DeJong. Mercado's two-run single in the fifth expanded the Cardinals' lead before DeJong hit three-run homer in the seventh, putting the scoreline at 10-3. St. Louis have won 11 out of 14 after their poor start at 10-24 and have maintained a strong record since, while the Dodgers dropped from three losses in the series, recording their first set since April 24-26.
