In the fifth, Pujols was thrown out at home when he was waved home from second on Yadier Molina's single. Encarnacion's misplay of an Ivan Rodriguez hit in the sixth set up the seventh Detroit run. An inning later, after we had again made it a two-run game, Todd Wellemeyer served up a solo homer to Gary Sheffield. The best shot of the game came against closer Todd Jones in the ninth. Jim Edmonds singled in an 8-5 game. Molina barely beat out a potential double-play ball, and Adam Kennedy walked. Chris Duncan, pinch-hitting for David Eckstein, flew out for the second out, but Miles kept things alive with an RBI single up the middle. St. Louis put the winning runs on base in the ninth, but Rolen popped up to end the game.
