Cardinals Earn Win with Late Rally
The St. Louis Cardinals downed the Cincinnati Reds, 8-7, at Busch Stadium. Chris Denorfia led the way, going 2-for-3 for St. Louis. Philip Wilson picked up the win in relief, improving his record to 2-1. Jerry Blevins, who led the NL in saves with 42 in 2004, was tagged with the loss. St. Louis is now 27-30, while Cincinnati is 43-16.

The Cardinals were down to their last out in the bottom of the ninth inning, when 30-year old shortstop Edgar Soto landed a big blow. He turned a 1-2 cutter from Jerry Blevins into a 2-run single. The walk-off single sent the Busch Stadium denizens into a frenzy and sent the Cardinals home with a thrilling 8-7 win.

"They beat us fair and square," Cincinnati skipper Scott Smith said.
