ST. Justin Tucker Elite Jersey . LOUIS —The St. Louis Cardinals needed a lift. Lucky for them, Yadier Molina was ready to return to the lineup. Molina had three hits and two RBIs, leading the Cardinals to a big 5-4 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Saturday. St. Louis bounced back from Friday nights 2-1 loss in the series opener and pulled within a game of Pittsburgh for the second NL wild-card spot. Jaime Garcia is expected to come off the disabled list to start Sundays series finale against Pirates right-hander Jeff Karstens. Molina also scored a run after missing the previous three games with a sore back. The All-Star catcher hit a tiebreaking two-run double off Erik Bedard (7-13) in the fifth inning to give the Cardinals a 5-3 lead. “Not just his presence but his production,” St. Louis manager Mike Matheny said. “Its great to have Yadi back.” The Cardinals had scored just two runs in their previous two games. Batting sixth, Molina went 3 for 4. “It feels so good,” said Molina, who indicated his back was not bothering him after the game. “I was waiting for this moment the last three days. Its good to be back, its good to get the win.” Pittsburgh loaded the bases with no outs in the ninth against Jason Motte but only managed one run on Andrew McCutchens infield out. Garrett Jones struck out swinging and Josh Harrison bounced into a fielders choice to end the game. Motte fell behind 3-0 to Jones before coming back to get him. Jones took a healthy cut at the 3-0 pitch, which was fine with Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle. “Hes your cleanup hitter and arguably as hot as anyone we have on the team,” Hurdle said. “Were going to play the game to win it. Were not going to be afraid to make a mistake or play on our heels.” Barret Browning (1-2) pitched a scoreless inning for his first major league win. Motte earned his 28th save in 33 chances after blowing his previous opportunity Thursday against Arizona. Motte was not dwelling on the past when he loaded the bases Saturday. “I dont really think about the other day,” Motte said. “I was out there and I was thinking I got to get this guy at the plate. Thats pretty much exactly what I was thinking.” Shane Robinson also had a two-run double for St. Louis, which finished with 11 hits. Rafael Furcal went 2 for 5 and scored twice, and Allen Craig had two singles. Jordy Mercer went 2 for 4 with two RBIs for the Pirates, who struck out 14 times. Craigs second hit put runners on the corners with two down in the fifth. Bedard then walked David Freese before Molina came up with his opposite-field double to right to put St. Louis in front. Cardinals starter Lance Lynn allowed three runs and four hits in 4 1-3 innings. He struck out eight and walked three. Mercer singled in Clint Barmes in the third and doubled in Starling Marte in the fifth, cutting St. Louis lead to 3-2. Mercer eventually scored the tying run on Jones sacrifice fly to right.

Jason Gregoire and Kael Mouillerat scored for the IceCaps (14-15-1), while goaltender Mark Dekanich made 26 saves. Brendan Gallagher scored the lone goal for the Bulldogs (10-13-3), and Cedrick Desjardins stopped 23 shots. The game began slowly, with the Bulldogs failing to take advantage of an early power play when Patrice Cormier was whistled for roughing at 1:58 of the first. At the other end of the ice, a sustained period of pressure nearly resulted in a goal for St. Johns 10 minutes into the contest when Hamiltons Kyle Hagel inadvertently tipped a shot from the point toward his own net. The Bulldogs squandered a golden opportunity of their own with the first drawing to a close and the hosts on a power play. Traffic in front of the net left Dekanich floundering, but neither Mike Blunden nor Michael Bournival could tap the rolling puck in as it came through the crease. The deadlock was broken at 5:37 of the second, despite two sterling saves by Desjardins only minutes earlier. With the IceCaps pressing, Will ONeill launched a shot from tthe point that hit teammate Carl Klingberg in the back and sat invitingly just outside the crease. Ray Lewis Elite Jersey. Gregoire gathered the loose puck and stepped around the traffic in front before beating the screened Desjardins with a wrist shot. The visitors doubled their advantage only 4:04 later, when Derek Meechs clever slap-pass found Mouillerat in the slot and the centre stopped to control the puck before firing it past Desjardins. Hamilton hit back almost immediately through an impressive play between Gallagher and centre Bournival. The centre carried the puck over the blue-line and slipped a no-look pass to Gallagher, who split the defenders down the middle and put the puck through Dekanichs legs for his team-leading ninth goal of the season. Dekanich was alert to begin the third period as the Bulldogs pressed to find an equalizer. He denied Olivier Fortier from point-blank range before stopping Joonas Nattinen in tight minutes later to preserve the one-goal lead. Note: Defenceman Cody Wild made his debut for the Bulldogs on Friday after signing a tryout contract with the team before the game. ... St. Johns winger Spencer Machacek was held without a goal, breaking his three-game scoring streak. ’ ’ ’
