Red Sox Win Squeaker, 4-3, Over Cardinals
The Boston Red Sox handed the St. Louis Cardinals a loss at Busch Stadium. The final score was 4-3. Major production was provided by Mike Shannon for Boston. In addition to his 1 single and 1 home run, he scored 3 runs and drove in 1. He also added 1 walk. Jason Hammel picked up the win with 8 innings of work. He allowed 3 runs on 9 hits, while walking 2 and striking out 4. On the season, he is now 3-2. The win puts Boston at 15-16.

Shannon had a game-changing home run in the top of the eighth. On a 2-2 curveball from Nick Pivetta, he banged a solo home run to left-center, giving the Red Sox a 4-3 lead. It was the 4th home run of the year for Shannon.

After the game, Boston manager Doug Morton applauded the team's effort. "They busted their tails out there," he said.
