The St. Louis Wizards ace hurled another 5-hitter, this time against the LA Dynamos, for his 2nd straight shutout. Carlton hasn&#8217;t allowed a run in his last 21 innings. He did walk 7. In the 6th, he got out of a bases-loaded jam when LA&#8217;s Barry Larkin grounded into a home-to-1st double-play against a drawn-in Chipper Jones at third. Meanwhile, LA ace Sandy Koufax had one bad inning, allowing 2-run homers to Oscar Charleston and Stan Musial en route to a 5-run 3rd inning. St. Louis improved to 12-2 with the 5-0 win. LA fell to 6-8, and Koufax is just 2-2 despite his 3.86 ERA. Carlton is now 3-0 and has dropped his ERA to 0.77. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/baseballmaelstrom.com\/?sp_event=720\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">St. Louis @ Los Angeles<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Steve Carlton&#8217;s dominance of Maelstrom hitters continued.
