PITTSBURGH - Jack Flaherty pitched six solid innings to keep his record perfect and Paul DeJong hit a three-run homer in the first inning to send the St. Louis Cardinals over the Pittsburgh Pirates 12-5 on Saturday night. He gave up three runs on six hits and two walks and improved to 7-1 in 10 career starts against the Pirates. The first run of the inning scored when Tommy Edman hit a leadoff double and scored on Paul Goldschmidt’s one-out single. “It was big, especially with two guys on,” said DeJong, who was hitting .165 coming into the game.
