Cardinals' Wong hits extra-inning walk-off home run to sweep Pirates

Kolten Wong put an emphatic stamp on the St. Louis Cardinals' three-game sweep of the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday with a walk-off home run.  

The Cardinals second baseman deposited a 86-mph changeup from Pirates reliever Radhames Liz over the right-field wall for a 3-2 win in 14 innings - the third-straight game the Cardinals won courtesy a walk-off hit.

"Wow. That's all I got," Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said following the game. "I love the fight that I am seeing."

Pittsburgh, who scored just four runs in the series, tied the game in the ninth inning and took the lead temporarily in the 12th inning before St. Louis rallied. 

The blast was the second of the season for Wong and the third walk-off home run of his career.
