Cardinals Crush Dodgers with Power | California News

About this episode

The St. Louis Cardinals exploded for 13 runs, including five homers, to obliterate the Los Angeles Dodgers 13-8 — a massive win that snaps their skid and marks their highest-scoring game ever at Dodger Stadium. Jordan Walker’s two-run blast and Thomas Saggese’s power helped turn things around as the Dodgers’ offense sputtered, with Ohtani, Freeman, and Muncy combining for just one hit. Lauer struggled early, surrendering seven runs in the first three innings, while McGreevy held steady through five. The Cardinals are now riding a wave of momentum heading into their next showdown with LA — and the Dodgers need to find their bats fast if they want to recover.

It's September 3rd. This is California News today, AI-powered stories from your city. The St. Louis Cardinals really showed up Tuesday night, taking down the Los Angeles Dodgers with a massive 13-8 victory. The key to this win? Power. They absolutely crushed it with five home runs, including two from Thomas such AC and a two-run blast from Jordan Walker, who actually won the home run derby. This offensive explosion was a welcome sight for the Cardinals, who had been struggling, losing seven of their last nine games and getting outscored. By a pretty wide margin, they managed to score their most runs ever at Dodger Stadium, which is a significant achievement against the team like the Dodgers. On the other side, the Dodgers offense, usually a strong suit, just didn't get going. Joehei Ota-Ni, Freddie Freeman, and Max Muncie combined for only one hit and three strikeouts. Even though Mookie Betts had a solid game before RBI's, it wasn't enough to overcome

the Cardinals' barrage. The Dodger's starting pitcher, Eric Lauer, had a rough outing, giving up seven runs early with five of those coming in the third inning alone. Meanwhile, the Cardinals' starter, Michael McGreevy, managed to go five innings, allowing four runs. This win is a big momentum shifter for St. Louis. They'll look to keep that energy going as they face the Dodgers again. The Dodgers, on the other hand, will need to regroup and find their offensive rhythm if they want to bounce back.
