ST. LOUIS -- Adam Wainwright is rounding back into the shape the St. Louis Cardinals have become accustomed to from their ace. Wainwright posted his 19th win, pitching a shutout Wednesday night as the Cardinals beat the Milwaukee Brewers 2-0 to hold their 2 1/2-game edge in the NL Central. It was his fourth consecutive win after a dreadful August during which he lost four of six starts and had a 5.17 ERA. "For a long while I wasnt very good," he said. "It was good to be back making pitches when I need to." Wainwright (19-9) worked around seven hits and tied for the major league lead in wins and shutouts. St. Louis has won four of five and kept its advantage over second-place Pittsburgh. Milwaukee dropped 2 1/2 games behind the Pirates for the second NL wild-card spot. It was the second time in less than two weeks Wainwright went the distance against Milwaukee. He gave up one run to the Brewers in a 9-1 victory on Sept. 7 at Miller Park. "I would say that was an impressive pitching performance," St. Louis manager Mike Matheny said. "He had everything and then when you watch the ninth and see 95 pop up there and you realize that this guy still had a lot in the tank." Mike Fiers (6-3) held the Cardinals hitless until Wainwright singled up the middle with two outs in the sixth. It was Fiers first start since beaning Miamis Giancarlo Stanton last week, ending his season. Fiers said he needed to forget about hitting Stanton in order to help his team. "Obviously, everyone knows what happened," he said. "But we have games ahead of us, we have games to win, important games and this was an important one." Wainwright struck out seven and walked two in his ninth career shutout. He has thrown three shutouts this year, matching Detroits Rick Porcello and Miamis Henderson Alvarez for most in the majors. Wainwright and Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw are atop the majors in wins. This was the Cardinals 21st shutout of the season, their most since 1968 when Bob Gibson and the rest of the staff had 30. Fiers gave up one earned run and three hits in seven innings. "Wainwright gave up more hits but he was able to pitch out of jams," he said. "Pretty much the only jam I got into, they made the hits when they had to and they needed to. I needed to be better in that one inning, I wasnt, so they capitalize." The Cardinals broke through in the seventh. After hit a drive that went about 3 feet wide of the foul pole, Matt Holliday walked with one out and reached third on Matt Adams single, continuing home when Gold Glove centre fielder Carlos Gomez slipped and mishandled the hit for an error. It appeared as if Holliday was about to stop at third before Gomez stumbled. Once third base coach Jose Oquendo saw the opening, he waved Holliday home to score the Cardinals first run in 17 innings. "I dont think that surprised anybody, either," Matheny said. "He was able to turn it back up. When were not getting things going, weve got to try and make things happen." Jhonny Peralta singled home Adams. TRAINERS ROOM Cardinals: RHP Michael Wacha, whose last start was skipped after he struggled in his return from a shoulder injury, is scheduled to start Saturday against Cincinnati. In two starts this month, he pitched seven innings and had a 7.71 ERA. Wacha threw his third bullpen session since his last start on Wednesday and did enough to convince Matheny he was ready. UP NEXT Brewers: Kyle Lohse (12-9, 3.81 ERA) pitches Thursday night against the Cardinals. He has lost five of his past six decisions, including twice to St. Louis. In those two losses, in which he lasted four innings both times, Lohse gave up 14 runs on 13 hits, including four homers. Cardinals: Shelby Miller (10-9, 3.75) has given up one earned run over 20 innings in three starts this month. He has won his past two decisions, following four consecutive no decisions. Miller won both of his starts against Milwaukee this season, giving up four runs in 12 innings. Shane Greene Jersey .

Brett Hundley threw three touchdown passes while No. 16 UCLA wiped out an 18-point deficit to defeat No. 23 Nebraska 41-21 and stun into silence a record crowd of 91,471 on Saturday. The win came six days after UCLA receiver Nick Pasquale was killed when he was struck by a vehicle while he was walking in his hometown and a day before coaches and teammates travel to San Clemente, Calif., for his memorial service. "You cant believe how tough it was on them," Bruins coach Jim Mora said. "You never want to say you won one for somebody. We didnt win one for Nick. What we tried to do today is go out and play with the type or energy, enthusiasm and passion for the game that would reflect what he meant to us." The Bruins wore No. 36 patches on their jerseys in memory of Pasquale. The Huskers wore No. 36 decals on their helmets, and there was a moment of silence for Pasquale before the game. The Huskers (2-1), wearing alternate black jerseys instead of their traditional home red, looked to be in total control in the first half. Then they had a flashback to last year at the Rose Bowl, when they couldnt stop Hundley and an offence that had 653 yards in a 36-30 Bruins win. "The first half there was so much emotion, Im not going to lie," Hundley said. "I just had so much emotion going into the game. There were a lot of things that added up to it. After the first half, everything slowed down and we got back to playing football and came out with the win." The 18 points marked the biggest deficit overcome by a Nebraska opponent in Lincoln since Washington State, according to the university yearbook, erased a 20-0 halftime deficit to win 21-20 in 1920. Memorial Stadium opened in 1923. The Bruins (2-0) scored 35 points in 16 minutes. The barrage started with Paul Perkins 10-yard touchdown run to cut Nebraskas lead to 21-10 at the half. Jordon James scored from 3 yards before Hundley threw TD passes of 28 yards to Shaquelle Evans, 12 yards to Phillip Ruhl and 3 yards to Nate Iese. "We came in at halftime and there werent a lot of adjustments that needed to be made," Mora said. "It was more of an adjustment in our mindset." Mora told his players at halftime that they needed to relax and breathe. "There were no mystical, magical Xs and Os," Mora said. &"It was just our players doing what theyre supposed to do and really just loving what they do, and thats playing football.dddddddddddd" Nebraskas defence, which has struggled in the biggest games in the past year, allowed 236 yards in the third quarter and 504 for the game. "The second half was a lot like last year," Nebraska coach Bo Pelini said. "We made the tackles in the first half. I dont know how many tackles we missed in that second half but it is a lot. We missed tackle after tackle after tackle." Nebraska came into the game hoping to get even for last years embarrassing performance against UCLA. Bruins linebacker Anthony Barr, who made 11 tackles and forced three fumbles, said he and his teammates also felt they had something to prove. "A lot people said last year was a fluke," Barr said. "We were listening to that and had a chip on our shoulder coming in here. We didnt play with enough controlled emotion in the first half. "The emotion got the best of us and we wanted to do a little bit too much on offence and defence. When that kind of settled down a little bit, we took a deep breath and came out and made a statement." The Huskers still looked as if they had some life in them when, trailing 38-21, they moved from their 25 to the UCLA 12 early in the fourth quarter. But Ameer Abdullah fumbled at the 6 after getting hit by Barr. Nebraska generated more than 19 yards on just two of its last 10 possessions and had only 130 of its 326 yards after halftime. "I felt at times I was looking at our guys on the sideline and it was like they saw a ghost," Pelini said. "Someone has to step up and make a play. We needed to get the momentum turned back the other way, and it didnt happen." Hundley completed 16 of 25 passes for 294 yards, with one interception that set up Nebraskas first touchdown. James ran 22 times for 105 yards and a TD. Taylor Martinez was 21 of 35 for 203 yards and three touchdowns for the Huskers, and Abdullah had 98 yards on 23 carries. Hundley kept alive the Bruins lone touchdown drive of the first half when he scrambled for 13 yards on a third-and-12. "That might be the play of the game," Mora said. "I dont like to point to a single play. But right there, we needed that." Hundley passed for 32 yards to Devin Fuller on the next play, and Perkins went 10 yards up the middle to make it an 11-point game. ' ' '
