ST. LOUIS (AP) --- Miles Mikolas pitched two-hit ball into the sixth inning,

Willson Contreras homered and Alec Burleson drove in two runs as St. Louis won

twice and drove in a run.
St. Louis (50-44) went 5-1 against Washington this year, winning the season

ball. He threw 91 pitches, 57 for strikes.
