ST. LOUIS -- Lost in the dominant shutout tossed by Adam Wainwright Saturday night was some good situational hitting by the St. Louis Cardinals in the bottom of the third inning.Four consecutive hitters stepped to the plate with a man at second and no outs. Aledmys Diaz walked. Stephen Piscotty doubled home two runs. Randal Grichuk doubled in Piscotty, and Matt Adams singled Grichuk home.That sequence sealed St. Louis 5-0 win over the Miami Marlins, setting up Sundays rubber game between the National League wild-card hopefuls in Busch Stadium.Those guys werent going up there, just giving themselves up to move the runner over, Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. They had good, solid at-bats, took good passes at the ball.Piscotty, Grichuk and Tommy Pham -- the teams outfield of the future, the outfielders that management bet on in the offseason when Jason Heyward left for the Chicago Cubs -- combined for five hits, three runs and three RBI in 12 plate appearances, drawing a pair of walks as well.While Matheny seems willing to give veteran Matt Holliday every chance to regain his form, despite Hollidays average dropping to .237 after going 0-for-4 Friday night, Pham is elbowing his way into the conversation.Pham has notched extra-base hits in four straight games and is 5-for-8 in this series, cracking two homers Friday night. Limited to 53 big league at-bats after missing nearly 2 1/2 months with an oblique injury suffered on Opening Day in Pittsburgh and a month-long stint in the minors, Pham is showing his vast ability.Hes playing an exciting style of baseball, too, Matheny said. Lots of speed, lots of power. Hes making the most of it.Pham should be back in the lineup Sunday when Miami (48-42) marches lefty Adam Conley (6-5, 3.62) to the mound. Conley is coming off a 4-2 win July 9 over the Cincinnati Reds, and averages nearly a strikeout an inning, although he also issues nearly four walks per nine innings.This will be the first time Conley has faced St. Louis in a regular season game, although hes probably seen it at least once in exhibition games as the teams share a spring training complex in Jupiter, Fla.The same goes for Cardinals right hander Michael Wacha (5-7, 4.36), who hasnt pitched since going 6 2/3 innings in a no-decision on July 8 in Milwaukee. Wacha departed that game after being struck with a comebacker in the right heel, but wasnt seriously injured.Even though the calendar says July 17 and the teams will have 71 games remaining after this one, there is some importance to this one. The Marlins enter tied with the New York Mets for the National Leagues second wild-card spot, while St. Louis (47-43) is a game back.Saturday nights 5-0 setback snapped a four-game winning streak for Miami, but it didnt spend much time dwelling on that result against a hot pitcher whos allowed only one run over his last 23 innings.Tomorrows a new day, man, Marlins left fielder Christian Yelich said.

Billy Williams Jersey . Then the Pacers gave Oladipo and his Orlando teammates the cold shoulder. Paul Georges buzzer-beating 3-pointer at the end of the third quarter spurred a 21-4 run, finally sending Indiana past the Magic 97-87 in a tougher-than-expected opening night matchup. COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Coach John Tortorellas mantra of safe is death is fully displayed on the walls of the Columbus Blue Jackets locker room and his team is all-in with the philosphy.Columbus (10-4-3) looks to extend its home point streak to nine contests when it hosts the Calgary Flames on Wednesday after its club-record seven-game winning streak was snapped with a 3-2 overtime loss to Colorado on Monday. The Blue Jackets are 4-0-1 in their last five games overall.I think its a great saying, Blue Jackets captain Nick Foligno said. For the way he wants us to play, I think it makes us feel good about going out there, possibly making mistakes and creating offense. What he means is if youre going out there and trying to make something happen, hell live with that.But if youre going out there, just going through the motions and making careless plays, thats something were not going to accept on this team.Calgary (8-12-1) makes its only regular-season visit to Columbus as part of a six-game nine-day road trip through the Eastern Conference. The Flames already traveled approximately 2,464 of the 6,049 miles that encompass the trip.They opened the trek with a 3-2 victory over Detroit on Sunday before losing to Buffalo 4-2 on Monday.Calgary is far from full strength with left wing Johnny Gaudreau out with a broken finger. The Flames are still without center Lance Bouma (shoulder) and rright wing Kris Versteeg (groin), although Versteeg could play in Columbus.ddddddddddddSpecial teams could play a role in Wednesdays game as the Blue Jackets boast the top power-play unit at 31.1 percent, which increases to 40 percent at home. Calgary, meanwhile, took six penalties in Buffalo and the Sabres scored three goals -- two with a two-man advantage and one on a 5-on-4 -- in a span of 1:41.Extended five-on-threes are tough, when theyre that long, Flames captain Mark Giordano told the National Post. But again, we have to kill them. And then when something bad does happen, we cant dwell on it. We cant let it pile up like it did there.That was just one after the other, and its not good enough.That performance leaves Calgary with the second-worst penalty-killing unit in the league at 72.7 percent.Meanwhile, Columbus 61 penalties are the third-fewest in the NHL.Neither Brian Elliott (3-9-0, 3.42 goals-against average, .882 save percentage) nor Chad Johnson (5-3-1, 2.31, .911) has asserted themselves as the Flames clear No. 1 goaltender.Theres no such issue with the Jackets as Sergei Bobrovsky (10-4-1, 2.19, .931), who returns to the net Wednesday, is off to a solid start. Backup Curtis McElhinney (0-0-2, 2.09, .925) suffered the loss Monday.
