Suns Top St. Louis, 5-4 | St. Louis right fielder Jerry Smith had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 5-4, to Los Angeles at Wilshire Park. Smith was 2-4 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Los Angeles now sits at 19-25, while St. Louis falls to 32-11.
The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the tenth inning, when Los Angeles third baseman Bill Burke, facing John Gibson, had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. It gave the Suns the 5-4 win.
"We were the better team," crowed Burke. | |
