Cardinals Beat Astros, 7-2
St. Louis (GCL) picked up a win at Ballpark of Belvedere, bumping off the Houston (GCL) Astros, 7-2. Pitcher Fernando Yanez was a major reason the Cardinals emerged victorious. Yanez, now 1-1, was the winner. In 7.2 innings, he gave up 10 hits, while striking out 9, walking 0, and allowing 2 runs. The Astros, at 8-12, have lost 6 straight games.

St. Louis (GCL) used a clutch at-bat from Eric Jones to capture the win. The right fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Cardinals ahead, 3-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"We're in a funk and we need to shake ourselves out of it," said Houston (GCL) manager Edgardo Avalos.
