PHOENIX (AP) --- Brandon Pfaadt pitched seven scoreless innings, Geraldo
Perdomo had two RBIs and the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the St. Louis Cardinals
7-3 on Friday night.
Pfaadt (10-6) allowed four hits with six strikeouts and no walks in his second
straight sterling start. Adrian Del Castillo had three hits, an RBI and scored
twice against Andre Pallante (5-6) after being called up from Triple-A Reno.
St. Louis scored three runs off John Curtiss in the ninth, on Victor Scott II's
two-run homer and Pedro Pags' run-scoring single. The Cardinals have lost four
of six.
Pfaadt tossed a career-high eight innings against San Diego in his last start
before the All-Star break, allowing two runs on four hits.
The right-hander allowed two hits through the first six innings before the
Cardinals got two on in the seventh. Pfaadt struck out Jordan Walker and got
Pags on a weak fly to center to end the inning.
Pallante allowed seven runs on eight hits in six innings against Washington in
his last start before the All-Star break.
The right-hander kicked off the second half of the season with another shaky
outing.
Herrera hit a run-scoring single off Pallante in the second inning and Perdomo
followed with a two-run single. Del Castillo had a run-scoring single in the
third, followed by Alek Thomas' RBI groundout.
Blaze Alexander chased Pallante with a run-scoring double that put Arizona up
6-0 in the fifth.
Pallante allowed six runs on nine hits in 4 2/3 innings.
Key moment Thomas made an acrobatic catch against the wall in left-center to rob Walker of extra bases in the fifth inning.
Key stat The Cardinals went 2 for 9 with runners in scoring position.
Up next St. Louis RHP Sonny Gray (9-3, 3.50 ERA) faces Arizona RHP Rhyne Nelson (5-2, 3.68) in the middle game of the three-game series Saturday. ___ AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb
