Close Win Moves Cardinals to 72-48
The inspired effort of Boston left fielder Barry Bonds was not enough to prevent a 6-5 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals. Bonds went 2 for 3 with a home run and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Doug Drabek, who went 6.1 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 2 runs on 7 hits, while walking 2 and striking out 3. His record now stands at 12-3. Steve Chitren got the save, his 28th in 31 chances.

One of the stars of the game was St. Louis center fielder Gerald Young. In the bottom of the fourth with one out, he got a changeup from Scott Erickson and hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 3-2 in favor of the Cardinals.

"We're one win closer to our goal," Young said in postgame remarks.

St. Louis bumps their record to 72-48 with the win.
