Walkers news: July 19 -- Chicago 6, St. Louis 3, 11 innings

Record: 48-44, 3rd, 6 GB Des Moines
Chicago scored three runs in the top of the 11th inning to defeat St. Louis 6-3 at Busch Stadium (1997).
The G-Men had tied the game in the top of the ninth when Jordan Groshans led off with a homer off River Walkers closer Edwin Diaz.
It marked Diaz's sixth blown save of the season.
In the 11th, St. Louis reliever Kenley Jansen walked three of the first four batters he faced.
A fourth walk, this one to Tyler Malone,scored Gorshans with the go-ahead run.
Caleb Ferguson then took the mound for the Walkers.
He was greeted by Victor Caratini who connected for a two-run single.
The G-Men got just 3.2 innings for their starter Franklin Perez, who allowed three runs on six hits.
Six relievers followed him to the mound and blanked the Walkers the rest of the way.
Tyler Chatwood handled the first 2.1 innings.
He was followed by James Pazos, Jamie Callahan, Ken Giles, Danny Barnes and Taylor Rogers, who all worked an inning apiece.
Barnes (3-4) earned the win.
Rogers notched his third save.
The loss spoiled a big game for St. Louis' Bo Bichette who was 5 for 6 with three doubles, one run scored and an RBI.
