Edmonds Hits 2 home runs in Cardinals Win
St. Louis center fielder Jim Edmonds made his presence felt in the 14-4 Cardinals triumph over the Orlando Sun Rays. Edmonds was 2 for 2 with 2 home runs and 3 walks, while scoring 3 times and driving in 4. The winner was Bill C. Swift, who threw 98 pitches over 5.1 innings. The right-hander was charged with 4 runs on 7 hits. The Cardinals bumped their record to 77-56 with this latest triumph.

Karim Garcia had a big 2-run triple for the Cardinals in the top of the fourth inning. With St. Louis leading 2-1 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a fastball from Andy Benes and stroked the triple to center. It was his 2nd triple of the season, and more importantly, it put the Cardinals ahead, 4-1.

"The boys came out and just played their butts off," said St. Louis manager Adam Rabel.
