Late throwing error lifts Cardinals to 6-5 win over Brewers (Yahoo Sports)

Stephen Piscotty watched Jonathan Villar's throw skid past first base, then sprinted 180 feet to give the St. Louis Cardinals a victory. Piscotty scored on a throwing error in the ninth inning after Carlos Martinez struck out a career-high 13, leading the Cardinals over the Milwaukee Brewers 6-5 on Monday night. Reliever Tyler Thornburg (5-5) threw to third base for a force out, but Villar's throw to first was wild, allowing Piscotty to score from second.
