Cardinals Prevail, 3-1, Over Atlanta
In a low-scoring contest, St. Louis pitcher Tom Candiotti was marvelous in his team's 3-1 win. Atlanta falls to 16-12.

The Braves had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Cardinals going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That changed quickly when the four-time All-Star Billy E Smith came to the plate. Smith hit a solo home run on a 2-2 curveball from Atlanta hurler Randy Lerch. It was Smith's 2nd home run of the year.

"It was just a matter of executing," said St. Louis manager Nathan Hall.
