The Dodgers (38-26) and Cardinals (35-28) opened a three-game series at Busch Stadium Friday night after an hour and 17-minute rain delay. Once the game finally started, the Dodgers’ bats apparently remained on a delay.

There were scoring opportunities for the Dodgers, but they failed to come up with a big hit and went a combined 1-for-13 with RISP. They left nine men on base in what turned into a rainy night without runs for the Dodgers in a 5-0 loss to St. Louis.

Tommy Edman received a standing ovation before his first at-bat back in front of the St. Louis crowd. Edman was drafted by the Cardinals out of Stanford in the 6th round of the 2016 draft and played his entire career with the Cards until he was traded to the Dodgers at the deadline last season.
