Walkers news: Sept. 17 -- Los Angeles 3, St. Louis 1

Record: 69-82, 5th, 13.5 GB Cedar Rapids
Led by 4.2 innings from starting pitcher Luis Jimenez, the Los Angeles Turtles limited St. Louis to one run in a 3-1 win at Petco Park.
The loss was the fifth in a row for the River Walkers, who were eliminated from playoff contention with the loss.
St. Louis trails first-place Cedar Rapids by 13.5 games with 11 games remaining in the season.
Jimenez allowed the lone St. Louis run -- the Walkers actually jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the top of the second when Nick Shaw led off with a double and scored on a Quiang Chang single -- and overall gave up three hits.
He struck out four and walked one.
Three relievers, Mike Christie (1.1 IP), Brian Little (1.2) and Jose Patricio (1.1) combined to shut out St. Louis the rest of the way.
Christie (5-0) earned the win.
Patricio picked up his 39th save.
The Turtles got their runs in single servings in the second, third and fifth innings off Walkers rookie starter Allan Almon.
In the second, Mike Pillsbury tied the game when he doubled with one out and scored on an Amari Simpson single.
An inning later, Nick Kline drew a one-out walk and scored on a Gerardo Bernal double.
A walk came around to score again in the fifth.
This time it was Josh Ames who drew a free pass from Almon.
Bernal doubled again to make it 3-1.
