Cardinals, Molina Get To Cueto, Beat Reds, 6-1

ST. LOUIS (AP) — With pitchers Johnny Cueto and Michael Wacha locked in a duel, Cincinnati Reds manager Brian Price took a calculated risk. The move backfired when Yadier Molina doubled down the left-field line on Cueto's first pitch to clear the bases and deal the Reds their fifth loss in six games. [...] it's just the best decision to walk Jay and go after Molina and have an idea of how we want to get the ball on the ground. Matt Carpenter led off the bottom of the inning with a double, went to third on a groundout and scored when he somersaulted over Brayan Pena on Matt Holliday's short sacrifice fly. Reds: C Devin Mesoraco (left hip) returned to the club after missing the team's series in Chicago but was not in the starting lineup. Cardinals: LHP Jaime Garcia, trying to come back from last year's left shoulder surgery, faced minor-league hitters at extended spring training in Jupiter, Florida. Bailey underwent surgery last September to repair a torn flexor tendon in his right forearm.
