Orel Hershiser had the best start of his Maelstrom career, taking a 3-hit shutout into the 8th. Robin Roberts matched him, allowing an RBI single to Jeff Kent in the 2nd inning for the only Chicago run. With 2 outs in the 8th, Joe Morgan spoiled Hershiser’s shutout with a solo home run. In the 9th, Mike Piazza doubled, but was too slow to score on Stan Musial’s single. Larry Walker struck out to send the game to extra innings. Roberts and Hershiser each pitched a perfect 10th. With one out in the 11th and Roberts still on the mound, Ken Boyer homered to put the Docs up 2-1. Tug McGraw pitched a perfect inning to pick up his 4th save. Boyer went 2 for 5 in place of Albert Pujols, who was given a day off. Troy Tulowitzki was ejected in the 5th inning for arguing balls and strikes. The win puts Chicago back at .500 with a 15-15 record. St. Louis has fallen to 11-19.
