Firebirds Use Late Score to Top Cardinals, 3-2
The Atlanta Firebirds and St. Louis Cardinals played an entertaining game for Busch Stadium patrons.

The Atlanta Firebirds, despite a fine performance by St. Louis pitcher Jim Rose, grabbed a 3-2 win at Busch Stadium. Rose allowed 2 runs over 5.2 innings. The Cardinals, at 42-53, have lost 4 in a row.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Luis Camacho? The 27-year old right fielder Camacho stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put Atlanta up, 3-2. For the game, he was 2 for 5, including 1 double and 1 single.

"You have to win 1-0, 3-2, 2-1 games if you want to get to where you want to go," said Firebirds manager Barry Larkin.
