Cardinals Win at New York, 5-2
The 5-2 St. Louis win over New York was due largely to Joe Denham. The Cardinals catcher was 2 for 4 with a double and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Brad Quintero, the winner, improved to 2-0. He held New York to 2 runs on 5 hits over 5.1 innings, while racking up 6 strikeouts. St. Louis goes to 9-2 with the win.

Denham contributed a big hit, a 2-run double, for St. Louis in the top of the second. With his team trailing 1-0, Denham took a fastball from Mario Espinoza and stroked the double to right. His 3rd double of the season allowed the Cardinals to leap in front, 2-1.

Denham called the win the result of "everyone working in tandem."
