Walkers news: Sept. 4 - St. Louis 7, Toledo 6

Record: 74-59, 1st, 7 GA Quad City
Marcos Francis and Manuel Coke went a combined 6 for 9 with four runs scored and two RBIs to help St. Louis defeat Toledo 7-6 at Busch Stadium (2006).
The River Walkers scored four runs over the first three innings to go up 4-1.
They also led 7-3 after five but still had to hold on for the win.
Coke hit a homer in the first to tie it at 1-1.
It was the fourth game in a row he has homered and the eighth time in the last nine.
Rookie Mark Waterson hit his 17th homer of the season, a two-run shot off Mud Hens starting Chris Ebarb, to give the Walkers a 3-1 lead.
That lead reached 5-1 in the third.
Francis drove in the inning's first run with a single.
Zach Wenman plated the other when he was hit by a Ebarb pitch with the bases loaded and two outs.
Toledo got single runs off St. Louis starter Xavier Wigfall in the fourth -- Quiang Chang with an RBI double and fifth on a solo homer from Chris Gibbs to climb back into the game.
The Walkers upped their lead back to 7-3 in the fifth with two runs off reliever Cameron Timmerman.
Waterson collected his third RBI of the game with a single.
Wenman earned his third RBI with a run-scoring fly ball.
The Mud Hens tallied three times against the always shaky Walkers' bullpen in the seventh.
Ellis Parr plated two runs with a triple off Brett McVey.
Tyler Dahlquist scored Parr with a single.
However, the St. Louis bullpen would step up over the final two innings.
Elvis Pool set the Hens down in order in the eighth.
Bobby Westerman allowed two hits, but no runs, in the ninth for his 22nd save.
Wigfall (9-10) earned the win.
He went six innings, allowing three runs on nine hits. He struck out seven and walked one.
McVey was not good in his one inning, allowing three runs to make it close.
