Pittsburgh Upended by St. Louis, 6-4
St. Louis registered a win at Busch Stadium by beating the Pittsburgh Pirates, 6-4. Pitcher Ed Franklin was one reason why the Cardinals triumphed. St. Louis reliever Dave Richardson snagged the win, upping his record to 1-0. Luis Fernández shouldered the loss. The winning streak has now reached 4 games for St. Louis.

St. Louis center fielder Sergio Cortés contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the seventh. With two down, he hit a fastball to left field for a 2-run single. It was his 29th hit of the season and put the Cardinals ahead, 4-1.

"No one player deserves all the credit when you win," Cortés said. "And the same is true when you lose."
