Guerrero Stars in 9-7 Loss to St. Louis
The St. Louis Cardinals withstood an impressive performance by New York left fielder Vladimir Guerrero to defeat the Mets, 9-7, at Shea Stadium. Guerrero was 4 for 4 with a home run, 3 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. With the win, the Cardinals are 13-25.

Darin Erstad had the most critical at-bat for St. Louis. With one in the top of the ninth inning, Erstad hit a 1-1 sinker from Victor Flores for a run-scoring single. It put St. Louis in front, 6-5.

"It wasn't a pretty victory," said Erstad, "but we got it done."
