OAKLAND, Calif.—Sonny Gray struck out six and didn’t walk a batter over six scoreless innings to beat his former club with career win No. 100, and Willson Contreras doubled twice and drove in a run for the St. Louis Cardinals in their 3–1 victory over the Oakland Athletics on Monday night.
Nolan Arenado hit an RBI single in the first to stake Gray (2–0) to an early lead against an Oakland team that had won three of four and drew a crowd of 5,508.
