St. Louis Cardinals starter Mark Portugal was in fine form against the Charlotte Knights at Busch Stadium, leading his team to a 7-3 win. Mariano Rivera got the save, his 9th in 10 chances. The Cardinals now have a record of 42-44 with the win over Charlotte.

Jorge Posada had a key at-bat with one out in the bottom of the fourth for St. Louis. With the bases loaded and the Cardinals leading 1-0, he got hit by a pitch, driving in 1 run.

"We take it day by day here," said Posada, "and today was a good one for us."
