St. Louis beat Maine at Ballpark of Portland, eking out a 6-5 win. The win was due in large part to right fielder Oscar Mantivar. He was 3-4 with 3 singles. He drove in 2 runs. The winner in relief was David Coupel. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.2 innings. He now owns a record of 7-2. Picking up the save was Alex Villalobos, his 4th.

Izzy Ortiz drew 1 walk in 4 trips to the plate for St. Louis. The 30-year old first baseman had a key at-bat in the top of the seventh. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 5-5 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Alexei Urrutia. It was his 20th RBI of the season.

"If we play like this, we can win a lot of games," Mantivar told the St. Louis Daily News.

After today's action, St. Louis sits at 51-61, while Maine falls to 56-56.
