RecapNathan Church went 1-for-3 with a double and scored the Cardinals’ lone run in Friday night’s loss to the Nationals.
Church led off the eighth inning with a double off of Jack Sinclair then came around to score on a ground ball off the bat of Ivan Herrera. That would be his only hit in three at-bats on the night and was the Cardinals’ only extra-base hit in the ballgame. For the season, the 26-year-old outfielder is slashing .252/.298/.373 with 10 homers, 50 RBI and 10 swipes in 444 plate appearances.
