September 5, 2006: Cardinals 13 Nationals 12 (14)




A remarkable game, but one that goes down as a loss for the Nationals. The Nats only led once in this game, yet continued to claw back and tied it at 12 after 9 innings. Both offenses then fell silent until the 14th, when the Cards pushed across a run on a sac fly while the Nats failed to score. I've included the play account because there are just too many highlights to recap. Check out Nick Johnson's 2 homers and Bernie Castro's 2 triples, one of which scored the tying run in the 9th. Also note Chad Cordero's 3 innings of hitless relief, it's a shame the Nats couldn't score one in those innings.

First baseman Albert Pujols cracked a homer and had 3 RBI as the St. Louis
Cardinals beat the Washington Nationals in 14 innings by a score of 13 to
12.

The score was knotted at 12 after nine innings. St. Louis won it in the 14th
inning. Ron Belliard drew a walk. Aaron Miles stepped up next and he laced
a base-hit. After an out was recorded, Scott Spiezio stepped in and he drew
a walk to load the bases. Juan Encarnacion followed and he hit a sacrifice
fly scoring the run. St. Louis out-hit Washington for the game, 19 hits to
14.

The winning pitcher was Jorge Sosa(6-9) who allowed no runs in 2 innings. Sosa
got relief help from Tyler Johnson who gained credit for his 2nd save. Ryan
Wagner(0-2) took the loss in relief. He gave up 2 hits and 2 walks in 1 and
1/3 innings.
