Nola battles, but Phillies fall short vs. Cards
(MLB.com Philadelphia Phillies)

Despite all the frustration that had mounted over the past three weeks, the Cardinals closed out one of their most grueling stretches of the season -- 20 games in 20 days -- on Sunday with a series sweep of the Phillies at Busch Stadium. A burst of offense, highlighted by Dexter Fowler`s go-ahead home run in the fifth, set the Cardinals up for a 6-5 win.
