CINCINNATI -- Billy Hamilton was very matter-of-fact about his latest impressive play, one that turned the game when it was still close.Hamilton robbed the Cardinals of a potential two-run hit in the fourth inning, and the Cincinnati Reds pulled away to a 9-1 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Saturday.Zack Cozart hit a pair of doubles during run-scoring innings that included St. Louis misplays, and Hamiltons catch-and-throw wiped out a Cardinals rally in the early going.Its my job to catch the ball, Hamilton said. If a great catch happens, it happens. I dont go out there to make great catches.With runners on first and second, Hamilton caught up with Alberto Rosarios fly to the warning track, smacked into the wall after making the catch, and threw back to the infield to double up a surprised Greg Garcia at first base to end the fourth.Garcia made a good, aggressive move, Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. If the ball comes off the wall at all, hes going to score. He (Hamilton) closed a lot of space in a hurry and made a great play.Pinch hitter Ramon Cabreras two-run single in the seventh inning put the Reds ahead 4-1. Cincinnati used four walks by Jerome Williams to score five times in the eighth, capped by Tucker Barnharts bases-loaded double.Dan Straily (11-7) gave up three hits, including Jedd Gyorkos homer, and a career-high seven walks in only 5 2/3 innings. Gyorko hit his career-high 25th home run, 18 since the All-Star break.I didnt know I had (walked) that many until I came in here, Straily said. Its baseball. Its one of those bizarre lines you see every once in a while.The Cardinals have homered in a club-record 22 straight games, hitting a total of 43 in that span. Only San Diego (25 games) has a longer streak this season. The 2002 Rangers set the major league record of 27.The Cardinals have lost seven of 11. Theyre still in position to get the NLs second wild-card spot, staying ahead of the Mets, Pirates and Marlins.Cincinnati used a couple of Cardinals miscues to squeeze out two runs against Jaime Garcia (10-11). The lefty had allowed at least five runs in each of his last three starts.Right fielder Stephen Piscotty lost track of Tyler Holts fly ball in the third, letting it fall for a double. Holt scored on Cozarts two-out double.Another double by Cozart helped the Reds load the bases in the fifth, and Rosarios passed ball let in a run for a 2-1 lead.OOPSHamilton ran into umpire Angel Hernandez as he rounded first base and thought about trying for second on an errant throw in the seven the seventh inning. Hamilton went down and had to stay at first for a while. He took second on his 58th steal of the season.GOLDEN TICKETJoey Votto used a song from Willy Wonka as his walk-up music for his first at-bat. Gene Wilder, who played the part of Wonka, died on Monday.TRAINERS ROOMCardinals: RH Mike Leake will fly into Cincinnati on Sunday morning and threw in the bullpen before the final game of the series.
