Cardinals beat Padres 6-0 behind 9-strikeout effort from McGreevy
SAN DIEGO (AP) --- JJ Wetherholt hit a Little League grand slam and Michael
McGreevy threw a career-high nine strikeouts as the St. Louis Cardinals beat
the San Diego Padres 6-0 on Friday night.
Wetherholt hit an RBI single in the fifth inning to right field with the bases
loaded. Padres outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr. overran the ground ball and it
rolled under his glove all the way to the wall. All runners scored. It was a
three-run error for Tatis Jr. and his first error of the season.
Later in the fifth, Nolan Gorman hit an RBI single and Alec Burleson scored on
a sacrifice fly.
McGreevy (3-2) pitched six innings, giving up a single hit to Jackson Merrill
in the fourth, and walked two. Relievers Gordon Graceffo and Ryne Stanek did
not give up a hit over the final three innings.
Griffin Canning (0-1) got the loss in his second start of the season after
returning from an Achilles' tear sustained last June. He pitched 4 1/3 innings,
with seven hits, six earned runs, five strikeouts and two walks.
