Diamondbacks Take Nail-Biter Over Cardinals
Rocky Colavito had a good game, but he could not keep the St. Louis Cardinals from falling, 7-6, to the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field. The St. Louis right fielder went 3 for 4 with a triple and 2 doubles, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once in the loss. Arizona reliever Rod Scurry got the win, raising his record to 2-2. Frank Carpin was tagged with the loss. The Cardinals drop to 13-15 and continue their inconsistent start to the 1969 season.

The game was at a stalemate until third baseman Jason Hardtke came to bat in the bottom of the 11th. Facing St. Louis pitcher Frank Carpin, he hit a 1-2 curveball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Arizona on top, 7-6.

"We'll put this win in our pocket and go after the next one," said Hardtke.
