Cardinals Dismantle Legends, 14-2
The Montreal Cardinals got production up and down the lineup while beating the Cooperstown Legends, 14-2. One standout was third baseman Juan Diaz. Diaz, who is tied for 4th in the TR in stolen bases with 8, went 3-3 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 3. Cooperstown is in the throes of a losing streak which has reached 9 games.

David Nieves had a big 3-run home run for the Cardinals in the bottom of the third inning. With Montreal leading 2-0 and runners on 1st and 3rd, he sized up a knuckle curve from Miguel Sanchez, who is tied for 9th in the TR in complete games with 1, and punished it. The result was his 11th home run of the season, which put the Cardinals on top, 5-0.

Quipped losing manager after the game: "Mama told me there'd be days like this."
