Cardinals Win, 3-2, in Extra Frames
Hammons Field did not lack for drama.

The Springfield Cardinals had to overcome a good performance from Northwest Arkansas pitcher Ben Calhoun to claim a 3-2 win at Hammons Field. Calhoun went 6.1 innings and allowed 2 runs. Reliever Nelson Acosta picked up the win. His record improves to 3-1. Norm Looker, who is tied for 4th in the TEX with a 1.90 ERA, took the loss.

The Cardinals got a clutch hit from shortstop Juan Almenza. In the bottom of the 11th, he delivered a run-scoring single to win the game for the Cardinals.

"It's nice to come out on top today," said Almenza.

The North Division-leading Cardinals have a record of 44-30.
