Giles Slugs Cardinals to 8-1 Win
The St. Louis Cardinals stopped the New York Yankees, 8-1, at Busch Stadium. The Cardinals got a big game from Brian S Giles, who slugged 2 home runs, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2. St. Louis is now 23-20, while New York is 14-29.

An impactful at-bat came in the bottom of the fifth inning. With the bases loaded, the batter, Ivan Calderon, hit a sacrifice fly. It made the score 2-1, St. Louis, and helped them go on to win.

"Winning is contagious," said Giles. "We're looking forward to the next game."
