Cardinals rout Nats 14-3, end three-game skid

(AP) Nolan Arenado, Paul Goldschmidt and Matt Carpenter all homered off Stephen Strasburg and the St. Louis Cardinals routed the Washington Nationals 14-3.

Jack Flaherty allowed one run on three hits in five innings as St. Louis snapped a three-game losing streak. Strasburg was hammered for eight runs on eight hits and five walks, two of them intentional. He was pulled after allowing all three batters he faced in the fifth to reach base, leading to a nine-run inning by the Cardinals.

The rubber game of the series between the Cardinals and Nationals is set for 12:15 p.m. Wednesday on 93.9 The Eagle.
