Red Sox Get Road Win, 6-3
The Boston Red Sox beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 6-3, at Busch Stadium. The win was largely due to the efforts of left fielder Jim Gleeson, who captured player of the game honors. He was 2 for 3 with a triple and a walk. He scored 2 times. The second-place Red Sox now have a win-loss record of 23-21.

Boston used the timely hitting of Johnny Rizzo to seize the win. The designated hitter stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the fourth inning to put the Red Sox on top, 4-2. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"It was a solid team effort," said Rizzo after the game.
