Sluggers 3-2 Winners Over Los Angeles
The St Louis Sluggers eked out a 3-2 win versus the Los Angeles Spirit at Busch Stadium. Nobody did more than pitcher Cristopher Sanchez. He was terrific. Sanchez, the winner, moves to 4-1. He threw 5.1 innings of 3-hit ball, while fanning 6 and giving up 1 walk. Robert Garcia sewed up the save, his 7th.

St Louis second baseman Luis Garcia Jr. contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the fifth. With two down, he hit a splitter to left field for a run-scoring single. It was his 44th hit of the season and put the Sluggers ahead, 3-0.

"That's baseball," said Los Angeles manager Bobby Kirkpatrick. "Sometimes the other team plays better than yours."

St Louis is now 21-21, Los Angeles 22-20.
