Rockies Bang Out 8-1 Win Versus St. Louis
The Colorado Rockies knocked off the St. Louis Cardinals, 8-1, at Busch Stadium. Lonnie Smith, who captured player of the game honors, was a big reason Colorado won. The designated hitter was 3 for 5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2. Ben Sheets earned the win for Colorado. He lasted 7 innings, allowing 1 earned run on 8 hits, while striking out 4. With the win, he raised his record to 5-4. Colorado has now won 3 in a row.

Colorado used the bat of Jon Nunnally to get the win. The right fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the Rockies ahead, 4-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"We did more than enough to get the win," said Nunnally.
