Slide Continues for Tigers
|
The St. Louis Cardinals beat the Detroit Tigers, 5-1, at Busch Stadium. Starting pitcher Andy Bourdeau was a big reason why. He held his opponent in check all game. Bourdeau yielded 1 run over 6 innings to notch the win. He scattered 5 hits, walked 1, and struck out 6. His record improves to 10-5. Picking up the save was Travis LeBlanc, his 1st.
Phil Lewis had a big solo home run for the Cardinals in the bottom of the fourth inning. With St. Louis leading 1-0 and the bases empty, he sized up a fastball from 29-year old right-handed pitcher John Brenner and punished it. The result was his 25th home run of the season, which put the Cardinals on top, 2-0.
"Andy -- his tempo and rhythm were good," said Cardinals manager Leyland Thomas. "He was the key to us winning."
Their 65-46 record puts the Cardinals first in the National League Central Division.
