Cardinals Topple Rockies, 11-8, as Rivas Shines
The rain came, as predicted, but the St. Louis Cardinals and Colorado Rockies were able to complete their ballgame.

Behind the hitting of Rich Rivas, the St. Louis Cardinals stopped the Colorado Rockies, 11-8. Rivas was 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3 for the Cardinals. The win went to Ray Holmes in relief, making him now 5-1. Ruben Velazquez took the loss for Colorado.

With St. Louis leading 1-0 in the top of the third, Rivas hit a fastball from Ruben Velazquez for a 3-run home run. It was his 13th home run of the season and put the Cardinals ahead, 4-0.

"Win or lose, we always try to grind it out and stay even-keeled," Rivas said in reaction to the win.

With the win, the Cardinals have a record of 52-50.
