Nolan Arenado homered in his fourth straight game and Nolan Gorman had a career-high five RBI to lead the St. Louis Cardinals over the Milwaukee Brewers 18-1 Monday night for their season-best fourth straight win.
Andrew Knizner hit his first career grand slam in a 10-run eighth after entering as a pinch runner earlier in the inning, which began with Tommy Edman homering. It was the most runs scored by the Cardinals in one inning since the first inning of Game 5 of the 2019 NL Championship Series at Atlanta.
St. Louis tied its season high with 16 hits. Following an eight-game losing streak that dropped the Cardinals to 10-24, St. Louis has won seven of eight.
LHP Wade Miley (3-2, 3.60 ERA) starts Tuesday for the Brewers and LHP Jordan Montgomery (2-5, 4.11 ERA) for the Cardinals, 5:50 with the pregame and the first pitch at 6:45 on KIRX.
