Record: 37-25, 1st, 3 GA Cedar Rapids
Picking up right where he left off the previous game, Nick Shaw hit a two-run homer to highlight a three-run bottom of the first inning and spur St. Louis to a 10-4 win over Des Moines at Busch Stadium (2006).
The win gave the River Walkers a sweep of their three-game series with the Harvesters.
A day before, Shaw had gone 5-for-5 including a three-run homer and a lead-off double in the bottom of the 10th inning, which led to the winning run to help lift St. Louis to a 6-5 win over Des Moines.
Shaw's homer came off Harvesters starting pitcher Hugh Fisher.
It drove in the final two runs of the inning.
Bob Saavedra scored the first run.
He led off with a single off Fisher, and moved to second on a wild pitch.
A Daniel Becerra bunt moved Saavedra to third.
Jose Ramirez made it 1-0 when he hit into a fielder's choice.
The Walkers, however, were no where near done scoring.
They broke the game open with a four-run bottom of the fourth.
Pitcher Jim Martin drove in the first two runs with a single off Fisher.
Dave Vacarri took over for Fisher, but was greeted by a two-run double by Saavedra.
Two runs in both the fifth and sixth innings, all off Martin, drew the Harvesters back to within 7-4.
But the Walkers would reclaim their comfortable margin with three runs in the bottom of the eighth.
The inning's first run, scored by Wenman, came on an error by first baseman Leo Cerna.
Nathaniel Dixon and pinch-hitter Manuel Coke both drove in runs with ground outs.
Martin (3-5) worked the first six innings, allowing four runs on seven hits. He struck out seven and walked three.
Four relievers, Zachary Stella (0.1 IP), Juan Munoz (1.1), Greg Sones (0.1) and Micah Andrew (1.0), combined to finish the game.
