Walkers news: July 31 -- Chicago 4, St. Louis 0, 10 innings

Record: 42-60, 7th, 15.5 GB Des Moines
Scoreless through nine innings, Chicago busted loose for four runs in the top of the 10th inning and went on to defeat St. Louis 4-0 at Busch Stadium (2006).
The win allowed the G-Men to take the finale of the three-game series after dropping the first two.
Chicago starting pitcher Jonathan Stiever went 6.1 scoreless innings, allowing four hits while striking out three and walking one.
River Walkers starter Jesse McNaboe wasn't nearly as efficient, allowing nine hits, but he didn't allow a run either in his eight innings.
The G-Men finally got things going in the top of the 10th, starting off against reliever Scott Rissler.
After getting a ground out from Daylen Reyes, Rissler walked Ozzie Albies.
Nick Ruffalo replaced Rissler, and things quickly crumbled for the Walkers.
Luis Tejada greeted Ruffalo with a single.
Jarred Kelenic followed that with a three-run homer.
Chicago added another run.
Paul Broyles and pinch-hitter Cruz Calderon both singled with two outs off Ruffalo.
A walk to Jerry Amaro loaded the bases, and led to Ruffalo being replaced by Cory Tiller.
Matt Walczek hit a grounder to shortstop Kyren Paris, which he booted allowing Broyles to score and make it 4-0.
Josh Morrow finished off the seventh inning for the G-Men following the departure of Stiever.
He also worked a scoreless eighth inning.
A scoreless ninth inning set Michael Steinberg (3-2) up for the win.
Andrew Perez held the Walkers scoreless in the 10th.
