Jordan Walker had a game-tying single in the eighth inning and Masyn Winn scored the go-ahead run on an error as the visiting St. Louis Cardinals rallied for a 5-3 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday afternoon.

Brendan Donovan and Lars Nootbaar also brought runs home without getting the ball out of the infield as the Cardinals secured a 4-2 record against the Dodgers this season while winning a pair of series.

Three St. Louis relievers held Los Angeles without a run over the final five innings, while right-hander Riley O'Brien pitched 1 1/3 innings for his first career save. JoJo Romero (4-3) did not allow any runs over one inning of work to earn the win.

Dodgers two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani hit a home run for his 1,000th career hit and struck out eight over a four-inning start as the Dodgers dropped to 3-6 at home since the All-Star break. Freddie Freeman had three hits for Los Angeles, while Alex Call had two in his first home start since his trade from the Washington Nationals.

Ohtani gave up one run on two hits with no walks on a day when all fans in attendance received a full-size replica of his World Series championship ring.

The Cardinals pulled ahead for good in the eighth. With two runners aboard and two outs, Walker singled to center against Alex Vesia (2-1) to tie the game at 3-3. The throw back to the infield went to third and then to second as Walker tried to advance. Winn scored on a throwing error by Dodgers rookie third baseman Alex Freeland.

The Cardinals took a 1-0 lead in the third inning on a two-out RBI bunt single from Brendan Donovan. The Dodgers moved in front 2-1 in their half of the third on a two-run home run from Ohtani, his 39th of the season.

The Dodgers opened a 3-1 lead when Andy Pages singled, moved to second on a wild pitch, stole third and came around to score on a throwing error by Cardinals catcher Pedro Pages. St. Louis got the run back in the sixth on a Lars Nootbaar groundout.

After taking the lead in the eighth inning following the single from Walker against Vesia, the Cardinals added one more run in the ninth on a Nootbaar RBI double.
