Cardinals 4, Diamondbacks 2: Allen Craig delivered a tiebreaking RBI double in the seventh inning to help host St. Louis complete a three-game sweep.

Shane Robinson ripped a two-run double among three hits and Jhonny Peralta had two hits and scored a run for the Cardinals, who wrapped up a 7-2 homestand. Lance Lynn gave up two runs and struck out six in six innings, Pat Neshek (1-0) worked two scoreless innings for the win and Trevor Rosenthal notched his 14th save.

Wade Miley (3-5) was tagged with a tough loss after allowing three runs in 6 2/3 innings. Paul Goldschmidt and Aaron Hill produced first-inning RBIs before Arizona was stymied over the next eight frames, finishing the series with just four total runs.

Gerardo Parra led off the game with a base hit and Martin Prado walked before Goldschmidt delivered an RBI single. Hill followed with a sacrifice fly to right and Miley carried the 2-0 lead into the sixth, when an error by Hill opened the door for Robinson's game-tying double.

Matt Holliday walked with two outs in the seventh and scored on Craig's double to right-center, which chased Miley. Matt Carpenter provided some insurance with a bloop run-scoring hit to center with two outs in the eighth as St. Louis improved to 20-10 all-time against Arizona at the new Busch Stadium.

GAME NOTEBOOK: Goldschmidt has hit safely in 20 of his last 25 road games. ... Holliday has reached safely in all 21 of his home games this year. ... Arizona continues its six-game road trip Friday with the first of three at the New York Mets, while St. Louis visits Cincinnati.
