The Cardinals won their second straight since a seven-game skid as Carlos Martinez went the distance on a four-hitter in a 7-0 rout of Philadelphia. Martinez struck out 11 in his first career complete game. Jedd Gyorko and Matt Carpenter laced two-run doubles before Gyorko added a sacrifice fly to finish with three RBIs.

St. Louis will look to pull off the sweep Sunday as they go with Adam Wainwright, and Aaron Nola will start for the Phillies. The first pitch is scheduled for 1:15. Sunday’s game can be heard on KTLO-AM. The Ameren Pregame Show begins at 12:20.
