TL;DR Summary

The San Francisco Giants completed their first away series sweep against the St. Louis Cardinals since 1998 with another late-inning come from behind win built on the labor of an airtight bullpen and some last minute thunder. Down to his final strike in the 9th, Mike Yastrzemski roped a 2-run no-doubter off Giovanny Gallegos that tied the game at 5 runs a piece and sent the bleacher boo-birds singing. The Giants kept the runs rolling in the 10th with 3 singles for 3 runs against Steven Matz to finish off the 8 - 5 win and end the season series against St. Louis with a shiny 6-1 record.
