With two outs and the bases loaded, JJ Wetherholt brought every Cardinal home on a bases-clearing, three-RBI double to put the Cardinals up 5-0.Dishmey finished his outing with 4 2/3 innings pitched and five earned runs. Davila went five scoreless innings with just one hit and one walk allowed and six strikeouts in his final start of the regular season.The score remained until the bottom of the seventh inning. Carter Johnson and Fenwick Trimble hit back-to-back singles to lead off the frame. After a wild pitch moved both runners up one base, Garret Forrester drove in Johnson on a sacrifice fly to get Jupiter on the scoreboard. Later in the inning with bases loaded and two outs, Michael Snyder drove in two more runs on a two-RBI single to cut the deficit to 5-3.However, in the top of the ninth inning, Palm Beach added an insurance run as Jon Jon Gazdar drove in Ryan Campos on an RBI single to make it 6-3.
