Walkers news: June 15 -- St. Louis 4, Madison 3, 10 innings

Record: 38-28, 1st, 3.5 GA Springfield
Manuel Coke hit a walk-off home run with two outs in the bottom of the 10th inning as St. Louis defeated Madison 4-3 at Busch Stadium (2006).
Coke's home run, his first since May 31, came on a 1-1 pitch from Muskies relief pitcher Marshall Larcombe.
It traveled 423 feet over the wall in right field.
The Muskies led 2-1 going into the bottom of the ninth before the River Walkers rallied to force extra innings.
Larcombe took the mound to start that inning opening it with a pair of strikeouts.
But Jackson Miller kept the game going with a single.
Eddie Estrella, who had homered in the seventh for the lone St. louis run, then drew a walk.
Nick Shaw followed with a single to load the bases.
Mark Waterson tied it with a single down the third-base line.
Walkers starting pitcher Josh McDonald allowed one run on five hits in the first six innings. He struck out four and walked two.
Mike Fagan took the mound for St. Louis to begin the seventh and allowed three straight hits which led to a pair of runs.
Armando Cintron finished the seventh and got the first out of the eighth.
Scott Rissler retired all five batters he faced in the eighth and ninth.
Bobby Westerman (4-1) retired the Muskies in order in the 10th and would get the win.
