Walkers news: June 29 -- St. Louis 3, Springfield 2, 10 innings

In the second game of a four-game series between the top of the teams in the NL South Division, as well as the two best records in the Midwest Baseball League, St. Louis rallied late for an extra-inning win.
Down 2-0 going into the top of the ninth inning, the River Walkers evened it on a two-out, two-run home run from Nicky Delmonico off Carl Edwards Jr.
St.Louis won it an inning later, when Manny Pina led off the inning with a single off Juan Nicasio. A Sean Rodriguez bunt moved Pina to second and Brock Holt put the Walkers up 3-2 with a single.
Sean Doolittle, in his first action since allowing two homers in the ninth inning of a loss to Green Bay, pitched a perfect bottom of the 10th to seal it.

St. Louis starting pitcher Jacob de Grom was stellar allowed two runs over eight innings on eight hits. He struck out eight and walked none.
The Prairie Fighters' Gerrit Cole also was impressive with 5.2 scoreless innings.
The win drew St. Louis even with Springfield atop the NL South Division standings.
