Rookie Lawrence Shines in Four-Hitter as Cardinals Top Pirates
Cardinals debutant Brooks Lawrence pitched a four-hitter to beat the Pirates 5 to 1. Lawrence, 29, 205 pounds, was called up from Columbus last Tuesday and energized a Cardinals staff short on depth. The win follows other late-season strong starts by Liddle, Morgan, and Pierce in a busy pennant race.
