Cardinals Edge Past Astros, 3-2
St. Louis picked up a win at Busch Stadium, bumping off the Houston Astros, 3-2. Pitcher Scott Kocis was a major reason the Cardinals emerged victorious. The Cardinals, now 7-14, have not found much traction so far in 2098.

Kocis was effective for St. Louis, seldom allowing the Astros to square up a pitch. The right-hander tossed 106 pitches over 7.2 innings. He limited Houston to just 1 run on 2 hits.

"I was a little disappointed," said Houston manager Zeb Currier. "We could've and should've scored more runs."
