Cavalry 10-8 Winners Versus London
Ben Kaatz was a major factor in the 10-8 St. Louis win over London. The Cavalry third baseman went 1-1 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. The winning pitcher was Tuomas Taipale. He tossed 90 pitches over 6.1 innings, allowing 6 runs on 9 hits. Antonio Chacon closed the door for St. Louis, picking up his 4th save of the year.

Michael Harris had a big bases-clearing double for the Cavalry in the bottom of the first inning. With St. Louis leading 1-0 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from Brad Edwards and swatted a double to left-center. It was his 9th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Cavalry ahead, 4-0.

"You start putting runs on the board and winning, everyone's going to get excited," said Kaatz.

The winning streak has now reached 5 games for St. Louis.
