Cardinals' Genesis Cabrera: Tripped up in Saturday's loss

Cabrera (2-4) was charged with the loss and his second blown save of the season in a defeat at the hands of the Pirates on Saturday, allowing three earned runs on four hits and an intentional walk over one inning. He struck out one.

The left-hander was charged with preserving a 3-2 lead when he entered in the seventh, and after retiring two of the first three batters he faced, three singles and an intentional walk led to him surrendering three quick runs. The stumble marked the end of a long stretch of success for Cabrera, who hadn't allowed a run in his 15 previous appearances.
