National League Championship Series: Michael Wacha Outduels Clayton Kershaw As Cardinals Take 2-0 Series Lead To LA

At St. Louis:

Michael Wacha pitched 6 2/3 innings of eight-strikeout shutout ball and John Jay's run-scoring fifth-inning sacrifice fly held up as the St. Louis Cardinals held off the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers 1-0 on Saturday to take a two-games-to-none National League Championship Series lead.  The Dodgers' Clayton Kershaw pitched six innings and surrendered only two hits and one walk but still was tagged with the loss.  The series resumes in Los Angeles on Monday.
