Scherzer was taken out in the middle of the fifth inning much to his chagrin. He had thrown 94 pitches at the time before he was taken out. Los Angeles relied on Joe Kelly, Brusdar Graterol, Blake Treinen, Corey Knebel and Kenley Jansen to keep the Cardinals at bay.

The key different in the game came down to St. Louis’ lack of execution with runners in scoring position. The Cardinals were 0-for-11 in that instance and only had five hits overall.
