Arenado's Walk-Off Slam Lifts Cardinals Past Brewers
Nolan Arenado Delivers Clutch Hit for Cardinals
In a dramatic turn of events, Nolan Arenado of the St. Louis Cardinals hit a walk-off grand slam in the bottom of the ninth inning to secure a 10-6 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday night.
Williams' Struggles Cost Brewers
Devin Williams, who had been lights-out all season for the Brewers, struggled in the ninth inning. He walked three batters and hit another, loading the bases for Arenado's game-winning hit.
Arenado's Heroics
Arenado's grand slam was his second hit of the night and his 22nd home run of the season. It was also his sixth career walk-off hit.
Brewers' Missed Opportunity
The Brewers had a chance to win the game in the top of the ninth inning when Williams struck out Paul Goldschmidt and Nolan Gorman with runners on second and third.
Cardinals' Resurgence
The Cardinals' victory was their fourth in a row and fifth in their last six games. They now sit just 2.5 games behind the first-place Brewers in the NL Central.
Williams' Blown Save
Williams' blown save was his first of the season. He entered the game with an impressive 0.33 ERA and 10 saves.
What's Next?
The Cardinals and Brewers will face off again in St. Louis on Wednesday night. Corbin Burnes will start for the Brewers, while Jack Flaherty will take the mound for the Cardinals.
