Cardinals Edge Past Astros, 4-3
Starting pitcher Willie Hernandez pitched well enough to help the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Houston Astros, 4-3. With the win, St. Louis upped its record to 48-48.

The Cardinals procured the win, in large part because of catcher Bob Watson. In the bottom of the tenth, he produced the game-winning run-scoring single.

"We'll savor this win," Hernandez told the St. Louis Citizen, "then get ready for the next game."
