2012 – Rain plays havoc with the postseason today, as Game 4 of the ALCS is postponed, and Game 3 of the NLCS is delayed by 3 1/2 hours. When the game is finally played, Matt Carpenter proves to be the unlikely hero for St. Louis. Taking over for an injured Carlos Beltran in the 2nd inning, he delivers a two-run home run in the 3rd to lead the Cardinals to a 3 – 1 win over San Francisco. Kyle Lohse is the winner over Matt Cain, while Jason Motte gets the save.
