The St. Louis Cardinals rallied from an early four-run deficit to defeat the Colorado Rockies 10-6 at Coors Field. Trailing 5-1 in the fifth inning, the St. Louis offense sparked a comeback keyed by a two-run single from Leo Bernal, a bases-clearing liner by Javier Baez, and a three-run home run from Nolan Gorman. Cardinals relief pitcher Cooper Hjerpe made his MLB debut in the contest, throwing four no-hit innings with six strikeouts. While Kyle Leahy struggled through three innings for St. Louis, the bullpen held the Rockies to one additional run for the remainder of the game. The Cardinals finish their series in Colorado with two wins out of three and travel to San Francisco for their next set of games.
