Nixon Helps Cardinals Beat Braves, 8-6
No one was more impactful than Otis Nixon in the 8-6 St. Louis win over Atlanta. Nixon, who is tied for 4th in the NL with a .422 on-base percentage, went 4 for 5 with a home run and 3 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Reliever Larry Yount picked up the win. His record improves to 1-0. Charlie Lea took the loss. Larry Andersen was called on to finish, recording his 7th save.

Nixon had an important at-bat with a runner on 1st in the top of the seventh, when he hit a 2-run home run. The Cardinals went on to win.

Nixon expressed little emotion after the game. "Every game we win now," he said, "is one less win we'll need to get in the end."

St. Louis now has a 3-game win streak.
