Record: 80-60, 2nd, 2.5 GB Springfield
It wasn't pretty but Kevin Hrdlicka took a shutout into the bottom of the seventh inning to help lead St. Louis to a 6-2 win over Ann Arbor at Crosley Field (1958).
Hrdlicka (13-9) didn't allow a hit until Kyren Paris singled with one out in the bottom of the sixth.
He got out of that inning without allowing a run.
But Lee Oakley ended Hrdlicka's outing when he led off the bottom of the seventh with a homer to make it 5-1.
For his six-plus innings, Hrdlicka allowed the one run on two hits. He struck out nine but did walk four.
Greg Sones pitched two innings of relief -- allowing the Wolf Pack's second run on a Jarred Kelenic homer in the eighth -- before Jesse Gaither pitched a scoreless ninth.
Offensively, the River Walkers did the most of their damage in the top of the second when they cored three times.
Danny Diaz opened the inning by reaching on a fielding error by Kelenic at first base.
After Mark Waterson was hit by an Erik DePasquale pith, Diaz scored on a Zach Wenman single.
Bob Saavedra drove in the inning's other two runs with a two-out double.
Danny Diaz homered off DePasquale in the third to make it 4-0.
A lead-off homer in the seventh from Daylen Reyes, his first since joining the Walkers in a July 8 trade, in the seventh made it 5-0.
Pack reliever Jim Dunphy allowed the homer.
An error by Kyrien Paris at shortstop allowed pinch-hitter Nick Shaw to reach base to begin the top of the ninth.
He later scored on a Manuel Coke fly ball to complete the scoring.
