Cardinals Absorb 6-4 Loss at Roger Dean Stadium
No one was more impactful than Steve Hawkins in the 6-4 Miami (GCL) win over St. Louis (GCL). Hawkins, who is tied for 7th in the GCL in doubles with 16, went 4-4 with a double and 3 singles, while adding 2 RBI. Miami (GCL) reliever Tim Ferguson picked up the win, upping his record to 2-1. Jim Sullivan absorbed the loss. The victory gives the Marlins a record of 38-18.

The Cardinals had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Marlins going into the bottom of the fourth inning. That changed quickly when the 20-year old first baseman Johnny Hill came to the plate. Hill hit a 3-run home run on a 1-1 curveball from St. Louis (GCL) hurler Jim Sullivan. It was Hill's 6th home run of the year.

"Baseball is about momentum," said Hill, "and we feel we've got it in our favor after that win."
