Giants Outmuscle St. Louis, 15-8
Tampa Bay third baseman Jorge Munoz had a 5-RBI performance, which helped his team down the St. Louis Cardinals, 15-8. Tampa Bay reliever Nick Brannon picked up the win, upping his record to 2-3. Fernando Rodney was saddled with the loss. After today's action, Tampa Bay sits at 36-55, while St. Louis falls to 51-41.

Tampa Bay used the timely hitting of David Eckstein to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Giants on top, 9-8. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"Chalk one up for the good guys," said Munoz. "I'm sure our fans enjoyed that win."
