Cardinals Earn Win with Late Rally
St. Louis third baseman Juan Álvarez picked up 3 ribbies while helping his team beat back the New York Mets, 6-5. Dave Richardson recorded his 3rd save for St. Louis. St. Louis goes to 14-8 with the win.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Raphael Ramirez? The 29-year old right fielder Ramirez stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put St. Louis up, 6-5. For the game, he was 2 for 4, including 1 double and 1 single.

"Good teams find a way to win close games," Ramirez said.
