Cardinals Bang Out 7-4 Win Versus San Francisco
St. Louis rode a decent outing from starter Shannon Withem to victory over the San Francisco Giants. The final score was 7-4. Withem went 7.2 innings to notch the win. He scattered 5 hits, walked 2, and struck out 7. His record improves to 12-12. The win puts the Cardinals at 59-87, while the Giants drop to 60-85.

Wayne Busby dealt the Giants a blow in the top of the sixth. Batting with runners on 1st and 2nd and St. Louis leading 3-1, Busby hit a first pitch fastball for a 2-run triple.

"Shannon was able to execute his pitches," said St. Louis manager Kevin Jones. "Simple as that."
