Win or a Double?

The Cardinals appear to beat the Reds 4-3 in the bottom of the ninth on a Yadier Molina double, who also homered earlier in the game. The Cardinals started celebrating, but the Reds want to challenge that the ball was a ground rule double and Matt Carpenter should have been held at third. It took a while for the Reds to challenge; the leftfielder never indicated it was a GRD. The Reds might have taken too long to challenge, and the PA just announced the game was over. We’ll see if there is a protest.

The Cardinals gain a half game on the Mets, and go into the final three games with a shot at the wild card. The Giants are just getting underway.
