Marlins Hammered by Wilson, Drop Game 5 to Cardinals
When the games really matter, the St. Louis Cardinals put on their best show, beating the Florida Marlins by a final score of 6-5 today. Dan Wilson earned player of the game honors, as he went 2-4 with a home run. He scored 2 times and drove in 3. St. Louis now leads Florida 3-2 in the best-of-7 affair.

Wilson contributed a productive at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With the bases loaded, he hit a 2-run single. It was one at-bat among others that helped St. Louis get the win.

"We'll enjoy this win," said Wilson. "But there's more we hope to accomplish."

Game 6 is set to be played Tuesday, October 8th, 1996. The scheduled starters for the game are Marty Bystrom for St. Louis and Chris Nabholz for Florida.
