Cardinals starting pitcher Adam Wainwright tossed his National League-leading fourth complete game Saturday, as he held the A's to just one run in a 7-1 win.
Wainwright allowed just the one run on five hits and a pair of walks. The run came in the eighth inning, with the Cardinals already holding a commanding seven-run lead.
Wainwright pounded the strike zone en route to eight strikeouts and only one walk in the game. He threw 78 of 112 pitches for strikes in completing nine innings, while pushing his record to 11-5.
Wainwright leads the National league with 125 2/3 innings pitched, while ranking fifth in ERA (2.22) and WHIP (0.99).
Wainwright is set to make his next start Thursday against the Angels.
