The St. Louis (GCL) Cardinals topped the Washington (GCL) Nationals by the score of 8-6, with the biggest share of the credit going to left fielder Mike Jones. Jones went 3 for 4 with 3 singles and a walk. He scored 2 runs for the Cardinals on the day. The winner in relief was Bobby Samuels. He is now 2-0. The right-hander allowed 2 runs on 3 hits in 2.2 innings. Jerry Beck picked up the save for St. Louis (GCL), his 4th of the year.

Hugh Fuller provided a timely hit. The St. Louis (GCL) pinch hitter delivered a bases-clearing triple in the top of the sixth inning to put the Cardinals on top, 6-3. It was his only hit in the game, but he made it count.

"It was a nice win for our side today," said Cardinals manager Daniel Descalso. "Not perfect, but we'll take it."

The last-place Nationals have lost 6 straight games.
