⚾ It was almost the storybook ending for Matt Vierling in his hometown. NBCSPhilly
Vierling's throw from center was powerful and on target.
The loss snapped a three-game winning streak for the Phillies, who still control the third and final NL wild-card spot with a game lead over the Cardinals. Vierling, 25, grew up a Cardinals fan and, like any kid his age, idolized Albert Pujols, who is 42 now and back with the Cardinals for the final season of his Hall of Fame career.
"It's pretty special competing against him," said Vierling, who had his picture taken with Pujols last week in Philadelphia."He's still doing it and it's pretty impressive."
