ST. LOUIS – Zack Wheeler took a one-hit shutout into the ninth inning and Rhys Hoskins homered twice as the Philadelphia Phillies beat the St.
Louis Cardinals 2-1 on Monday night. Hoskins' seventh career multi-homer game and second this season helped the Phillies improve to 3-1 against St.
Louis. Wheeler (2-2) struck out nine and edged Cardinals starter Adam Wainwright in a classic pitchers' duel that took just 2 hours, 22 minutes.
Wheeler retired his first 14 batters until Paul DeJong’s opposite-field single to right ended the streak in the fifth. The right-hander helped himself with some quick thinking in the sixth.
