Cardinals Raise Rally Flag, Beat Colorado, 6-5
The Colorado Rockies could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Ruben Velazquez into a win. Instead, the St. Louis Cardinals prevailed, 6-5. Velazquez threw 6.0 innings of 3-hit ball. Their 53-31 record puts the Cardinals first in the National League Central Division.

The game was at a stalemate until left fielder Fernando Contreras came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Colorado pitcher Ethan Moorer, he hit a 0-1 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting St. Louis on top, 6-5.

"I like the makeup of this team," said Cardinals manager Leyland Thomas.
