Walkers news: August 19 -- St. Louis 8, Fort Worth 3

Record: 51-69, 7th, 12.5 GB Springfield
Trailing 2-0, St. Louis exploded for six runs in the top of the third inning, and the River Walkers rode that to an 8-3 win over Fort Worth at Ebbets Field (1948).
Kyren Paris got things rolling for the Walkers in that inning, drawing a lead-off walk from Mad Men starting pitcher Ramon Diaz.
A passed ball moved Paris to second, and he scored when pitcher Alex Pazos connected on a one-out single.
Nathaniel Dixon followed with another single.
Diaz got Daniel Becerra for the second out.
But Diaz was never able to record out No. 3.
Jose Segura drew a walk to load the bases.
Nick Shaw followed with a single which scored and put St. Louis in front 3-2.
Jae-hong Chang and Jovan Gill then connected on back-to-back doubles, Chang's scored one and Gill's a pair, as the Walkers lead reached 6-2.
Diaz exited the game after Gill's two-bagger.
St. Louis got insurance runs in the form of solo homers from Dixon, off Lenny Torres in the fourth, and Segura, off Koi-sho Pai in the eighth.
Pazos (1-3) earned his first career win by allowing three runs on five hits over six innings.
Nick Ruffalo handled the seventh and eighth innings.
John Good set the Mad Men down in order in the ninth.
