Cardinals pitcher Lance Lynn picked up his second win on Monday night against the Pirates. He allowed four runs on seven hits over five innings of work in a 10-6 victory.

The right-hander gave up a run in the first before running into trouble in the third. In that frame, he surrendered an RBI double to Andrew McCutchen before Neil Walker hit a two-run homer.

Lynn (2-0) was done after throwing 99 pitches, 65 for strikes, and struck out four while walking three.

His next start is scheduled for Saturday against the Phillies. In one start against Philadelphia last season, Lynn allowed four runs over five innings in a no-decision.
