  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
San Francisco Giants (72-79) 2 1 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 5 8 2
St. Louis Cardinals (61-90) 1 1 0 0 2 0 0 2 X 6 13 0
Cardinals Earn Clutch Win, 6-5
Getting a good performance from third baseman Brian Schales, the St. Louis Cardinals defeated the San Francisco Giants, 6-5. Schales was 3-3 with 3 singles for the Cardinals. Walt Henley got credit for the win, improving to 4-4. He allowed no runs on no hits in 1.2 innings. The win has St. Louis at 61-90.

Had Christian Yelich not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Yelich hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 6-5, in favor of the Cardinals.

"I like to lead by example," said Schales. "I'm glad I could contribute to a good win."
