The game will resume at 12:15 p.m. EDT on Wednesday and will air on KTLO AM 1240 starting at 11:20 with Ameren Total Access with the teams’ regularly-scheduled matinee slated to start after the conclusion of the suspended game.

Lance Lynn allowed one unearned run on two hits and struck out five while pitching six innings for the first time since tossing seven innings on April 16 at Oakland.

“He did a really nice job,” Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said. “He filled up the zone, fastball, cutter, sinker. He landed the curveball eight out of nine times, landed that pitch extremely well.”

Kyle Bradish allowed one run on four hits in five innings. He struck out six.

The Orioles capitalized on an error in the top of the fifth inning to tie the game at 1. Kyle Stowers reached base on a ball that bounced off Nolan Gorman’s glove for an error and scored on Jorge Mateo’s double to left field.

Masyn Winn extended his hitting streak to 12 games with a double down the right field line in the bottom of the fourth.
