PITTSBURGH _ It didn't take many hits for the Cardinals to shake their offense awake just in the nick time, and that was a good thing because for a long time they didn't have any.
Pirates started Mitch Keller took a no-hitter through six innings, but when he didn't come out for the seventh, the Cardinals' offense did. For the second time in as many games, the Cardinals swamped the Pirates with a late crooked-number inning that erased a lead and set sail for their own victory. Tyler O'Neill's two-run double started what became a five-run seventh inning and led to a 5-4 victory Friday at PNC Park.
The rally was the Cardinals' largest of the season, and their biggest deficit they've overcome since August of last year, against the Pirates.
