Manuel Coke connected on a two-out RBI single in the bottom of the eighth inning to score Ryan Wibbenmeyer and St. Louis went on to defeat Cincinnati 2-1 at Busch Stadium (2006).
Wibbenmeyer had got on base just in front of Coke, doubling with two outs off River Sharks reliever Joseph King.
Coke's game-winning hit came on a 2-2 pitch and drove through the middle of the infield.
The River Walkers got a strong start from Miguel Cisneros, who allowed one run on 10 hits over seven innings. He struck out seven and walked one.
Cisneros exited after allowing a lead-off double to Bradley Mondesir in the eighth.
He had thrown 112 pitches.
Rookie Frank Jimenez took over and retired the next three to keep it 1-1.
Jimenez (1-0) would earn the first win of his career.
Walkers closer Craig Fritzler set Cincinnati down in order in the ninth for his 18th save.
The Sharks jumped out to 1-0 lead in the top of the second.
Jordan Groshans led off with a single and reached third on a throwing error by catcher Zach Wenman on a steal of second.

Wibbenmeyer scored that run two after he singled off Cincinnati starting pitcher Nelson Arreola with one out.
