Throughout the game, the Cardinals struggled to find their rhythm at American Family Field. The team managed to accumulate only five hits and scored two runs over nine innings. Despite their efforts, they committed one error which contributed to their challenges on the field. The Cardinals' scoring was limited to single runs in both the seventh and ninth innings, showcasing moments of potential that ultimately could not overturn their deficit.
On an individual level, St. Louis's performance at bat was highlighted by a home run that contributed significantly to their total run tally for the game.
