The Cardinals take a 3-2 lead over Milwaukee in the NLCS with a 7 – 1 win at home, even though, once again, their starting pitcher, Jaime Garcia, fails to reach the 6th inning. The longest outing by a Cards starter this series has been a five-inning stint by Chris Carpenter in Game 3. However, the bullpen is once again outstanding, with four pitchers keeping Milwaukee off the scoreboard for the last 4 1/3 innings and Octavio Dotel recording the win. St. Louis scores three times against Zack Greinke in the 2nd inning and then steadily adds to this early lead to get the win.
