The St. Louis Cardinals secured a thrilling 7-6 extra-inning victory over the Miami Marlins, highlighted by Masyn Winn's two-run homer in the 12th inning. Despite blowing multiple leads, the Cardinals managed to hold off the Marlins, thanks in part to Dylan Carlson's crucial throw to home plate in the 12th inning that prevented the tying run. Both teams received notable performances from their starting pitchers, but it was the Cardinals' bullpen and key defensive plays that ultimately secured the win. Marlins' efforts, including key plays by players like Jazz Chisholm Jr. and Otto Lopez, added excitement to the matchup.
