Cavalry Score Late, Stun Tigers, 4-2
The 4-2 St. Louis win over London was due in large part to Paul Ainsworth. The Cavalry shortstop was 4-5 with a triple and 2 doubles, while scoring 3 runs. The second-place Tigers have lost 4 consecutive games.

The game was at a stalemate until first baseman Alex Hernandez came to bat in the top of the eighth. Facing London pitcher David Cavalluzzi, he hit a 2-1 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting St. Louis on top, 3-2.

Hernandez called the win "a collective effort."
