St. Louis generated 10 hits and 8 RBIs while striking out 10 times, posting a .705 OPS despite a modest .241 batting average, signaling efficiency in run production over volume. Cincinnati managed 9 hits and 3 RBIs with a nearly identical .706 OPS but could not capitalize on opportunities, striking out only 7 times while drawing 4 walks. The Cardinals' pitching staff allowed 9 hits and 3 earned runs with a 4.13 ERA and 7 strikeouts, while the Reds' bullpen surrendered 10 hits and 7 earned runs across 4.81 ERA, indicating a significant gap in run prevention.

The Cardinals' ability to score efficiently despite modest batting statistics suggests their run-scoring approach may prove valuable in subsequent divisional matchups.
