Walkers news: June 1 -- Quad City 3, St. Louis 1

Record: 26-21, 3rd, 3 GB Des Moines
Justus Sheffield allowed one run over six innings and Quad City overcame an early 1-0 deficit as it rallied for a 3-1 win over St. Louis at Fenway Park (1970).
With the victory, the Thunder took the final two contests of the three-game series.
The River Walkers grabbed an early 1-0 lead after Rhys Hoskins hit his 10th homer of the season off Sheffield in the first inning.
Quad City tied in the second after Blake Rutherford led off with a double off St. Louis starter Kyle Hendricks and scored on a two-out double by Miguel Gomez.
Three singles -- Duke Kinamon, Ka'ai Tom and Orlando Arcia -- all singled in the third to load the bases against Hendricks.
Luke Baker scored Kinamon with a sacrifice fly.
Kinamon also added an insurance run for Q-C, when he led off the fifth with a homer off Hendricks.
Sheffield worked six innings, allowing one run on four hits. He struck out seven and walked one.
Trae Harmon and Joe Kelly both worked an inning apiece to get the game to the ninth.
Jimmy Herget got the first out of the ninth. P.J. Conlon took care of the last two, earning his first save of the season.
