Teoscar Hernández delivered a crucial two-run double in the ninth inning, leading the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 3-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday night, preventing a series sweep. With the Dodgers trailing and struggling with runners in scoring position, Hernández’s hit off Riley O’Brien, who suffered his sixth blown save, secured the team’s eighth walk-off win of the season. Tommy Edman, who had a standout performance with four hits, set the stage by singling and stealing second. The Cardinals initially led with RBI singles from Joshua Báez and Ramón Urías, but the Dodgers’ late rally turned the game around. Both teams now prepare for their upcoming series, with the Cardinals facing the Colorado Rockies and the Dodgers taking on the Washington Nationals.
