ST. LOUIS (AP) — Adam Wainwright sprinted to the
mound for the ninth inning, sending a message that he
had plenty left. He pretended not to notice when the bull-
pen got busy, and he avoided eye contact with manager
Mike Matheny.
Without saying a word, the St. Louis Cardinals ace told
them all to stand down, he had this one.
“To pitch a game like that was one of the highlights of
my baseball life, no doubt,” Wainwright said after throw-
ing a complete game to beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-1
Wednesday night and put the Cardinals in the NL cham-
pionship series for the third straight season.
“These are the moments that starting pitchers live for.”
David Freese’s two-run homer in the second inning off
rookie Gerrit Cole was all Wainwright needed. The right-
hander also had won Game 1 and allowed one run in 16
innings in two dominant outings against the Pirates.
The Cardinals are 8-1 when facing postseason elimina-
tion the last three years, and they get to stay at home to
open the NLCS against the well-rested Los Angeles Dodg-
ers on Friday night.
“It’s going to be a blast,” Freese said. “It’s going to be
fun, St. Louis and L.A. going at it."
Wainwright was motivated for Game 5, mindful that
he’d put the Cardinals in an early 6-0 hole at Washing-
ton last October and needed the offense to pick him up.
He struck out Pedro Alvarez with two men on to end the
complete game that he’d said was a goal.
“I didn’t want to see him come out of that game, and he
wasn’t coming out,” Matheny said. “It made everybody in
the whole stadium’s hair stand on end, because you could
see he wanted that ball worse than anything in the world.”
Jon Jay had an RBI single in the sixth and Matt Adams
hit his first homer of the postseason, a two-run shot off
Mark Melancon in the Cardinals’ three-run eighth.
Alvarez was again a highlight for Pittsburgh, becoming
the first player to get an RBI in his first six postseason
games on a fluke hit that caromed off first base in the
seventh. The rally began with a pair of infield hits.
The Pirates were held to one run in each of the final
two games of their first playoff appearance since 1992.
Pittsburgh beat the Reds in the NL wild card game, but
hasn’t won a postseason series since winning the World
Series in 1979.
“We’re not the team that lost again, we’re the team that
won,” MVP candidate Andrew McCutchen said. “We defi-
nitely have to take a little pride in that we were that team.
“It feels like it’s going to be the beginning for us.”
Wainwright was helped by three double plays — two
when Pirates runners strayed too far on line drives. The
right-hander struck out six and walked one in a 107-pitch
effort.
As a rookie in 2006, Wainwright got the final out in the
NLCS and World Series. He's 4-0 with a 2.03 ERA and
four saves in 15 career postseason games, including six
starts.
The 23-year-old Cole threw six dominant innings to
beat the Cardinals in Game 2, also in St. Louis. His fast-
ball hit 100 mph in the first inning against Matt Holliday
but he paid for a hanging breaking ball to Freese, then got
lifted for a pinch hitter in the sixth.
“If it’s a different game, probably could ride him a little
bit longer," manager Clint Hurdle said. “We've only got 12
outs to play with and we don’t have any runs.”
Freese struggled this season to overcome a back injury
in spring training and had nine homers and 60 RBIs. But
just like teammate Carlos Beltran, he’s an October star
with seven homers, 29 RBIs and a .325 average in 36 ca-
reer postseason games.
• At 23 years, 31 days, Cole was the youngest NL pitcher
to start Game 5 of a division series and the fifth-youngest
NL pitcher to start a winner-take-all postseason game, ac-
cording to STATS.
Counting the postseason, Cole didn’t allow a homer in
six straight starts. That ended when Freese connected for
