ATLANTA (AP) — Tommy Pham hit two homers, including a two-run drive in the 14th inning, and the St. Louis Cardinals recovered after blowing a four-run lead to beat the Atlanta Braves 6-4 on Sunday and complete a three-game sweep.

Pham’s long home run in the 14th off Josh Collmenter (0-1) drove in rookie Magneuris Sierra, who reached on second baseman Jace Peterson’s fielding error. Recalled from Triple-A Memphis on Friday, Pham had a career-high four hits and drove in three runs.

Freddie Freeman’s 11th homer off Brett Cecil in the eighth tied the game, completing Atlanta’s comeback from a 4-0 deficit. Matt Carpenter had a first-inning homer for St. Louis. He went deep in all three games during the series, giving him seven home runs this season.

Atlantic Head Coach Ed DenBeste: “Today was a good test for our golf team.  Several state qualifies from last year were here in Carroll.  We knew we had to play one of our best rounds to win.  We also played from the blue tees which made the course more challenging today.

This was a great win for us.  We beat last years score by 7 strokes and played different tees.  Would have liked to see Jake a little lower today.  Had struggles some with the putter.  Great to see Matt and Nate shoot their score today.  Nate has really come on in the last few weeks.  Ben was a little high as well.  Need him to bring that down as we head into next week.  Also want to see Zac get his score down.  He had to battle today.  Just wasn’t there.  This was Cyle’s first time on the course.  Good score but I know he wanted better.  Hope this is a good boost for us heading into Conference and Sectional play.”
