As gifts go, Pirates left fielder Starling Marte’s 9th Inning simple catching error gave St Louis the impetus to pull off a miraculous 14 Innings comeback to win 4 – 3.

If St Louis take the title by one game at the end of the season then sadly many will recall Marte’s disaster as a pivotal moment.
