The loss was the sixth in a row for St. Louis and moved Walkers to 10-1 since the start of the month.
Jose Segura connected for an RBI triple off River Sharks starting pitcher Chris Novotny and later scored on a Abdul-Nasser bin Amr fly ball to highlight a two-run top of the second inning.
In the sixth, Manuel Coke and Marcos Francis hit back-to-back homers off Novotny to open the inning and push that advantage to 4-0.

A wild pitch scored one run while Tom Aloisio drove in the other with a two-out single off Nick Ruffalo.
Jonathan Hodges connected on for an RBI single off Bobby Westerman with one out in the seventh.
