Record: 78-57, 2nd, 2.5 GB Cedar Rapids
St. Louis scored four times in the bottom of the eighth inning to defeat Toledo 6-5 at Busch Stadium (2006).
At one point, the Mud Hens owned leads of 3-0 and 5-1 only to see the River Walkers storm back.
Aided by three walks, Toledo scored three times in top top of the first off St. Louis starting pitcher Shane Drogo.
Ronny Mauricio drove in a run with a bases-loaded walk.
Danny Diaz plated the other two with a single.
After Bob Savaderra led off the bottom of the first with a homer off Hens starter Matt Todd, Toledo responded with a run in the top of the second, and another one in the third.
Jamie Mora reached on an error by second baseman Izaac Pacheco to open the bottom of the second.
Mora stole both second and third, and scored on an Andy Jordan fly ball.
Kevin Valentin led off the third with his 28th homer of the season.
The Walkers made it 5-2 in the bottom of the fifth, when Aaron Nixon, who had four hits in the game, tripled off Todd to lead off the inning.
He scored on a Pacheco fly out.
St. Louis really busted loose against the Toledo bullpen in the eighth.
It happened fairly quickly.
Saavedra led off with a double off Jose Lopez, and scored on a Manuel Coke single.
Hector Tavarez then tied it with two-run homer.
Josh Stauffer replaced Lopez, only to issue a walk to Nick Shaw.
Stauffer retired the next two, but Nixon doubled down the third-base line scoring Shaw to put the Walkers in front.
It was an ugly start for Drogo, who lasted just 3.2 innings, during which he allowed five runs on three hits. He struck out six and walked the same.
The St. Louis' bullpen, however, was lights out not allowing a hit over the final 5.1 innings.
Oscar Martinez got the call first, and he finished the fourth inning and pitched until there was two outs in the seventh.
Scott Rissler finished off the seventh, and worked a slight eighth.
Bobby Westerman tossed a 1-2-3 ninth for his eighth save since coming to St. Louis.
