Cardinals Clip Nationals

Sep 24, 2013 6:48 AM

 Adam Wainwright allowed three runs in seven-plus innings as the Cardinals dropped the Nationals 4-3 in St. Louis.  Wainwright improved to 18-and-9 on the season.  Carlos Beltran broke a two-all tie in the fifth with a two-run homer for St. Louis, which has a magic number of four to clinch the NL Central.  Trevor Rosenthal picked up the save.  Tanner Roark allowed four runs in five innings to slip to 7-and-1.  Jayson Werth smacked a two-run shot for Washington, which was eliminated from postseason contention.
