3rd inn Erics ground out scores Johnson 2-1
4th inn, 1 out, slater walks, Dean doubles, Jake pinch runs for Slater at 3rd. Johnson hits a fly ball, Jake has a great slide at the plate to just beat the throw, 2-2
Whitey found his groove on the mound setting down the next 14 out of 16 hitters.
Bottom 8th after a lead off hit, the cards bunt. Then Tony enters game, then an error, then a balk to score go ahead run, then a error to put Cards up 4-2.

Bottom 9th, lead off walk, then a fly out, then a single. 1st & 2nd, 1 out. Ode takes over for tony. a Wild pitch advances runners to 2nd & 3rd, then a sac fly wins the game for the Cards, setting up an exciting game 3 in Young America Sunday at 2pm.
