Late Magic Gets St. Louis 8-7 Win
A 3-RBI performance from shortstop Germany Smith, who finished 4th in the NL in wins above replacement with 5.0 in 1888, led the St. Louis Cardinals to a win over the New York Giants, 8-7. The winner was St. Louis reliever Pink Hawley, now 16-6. The loser was Jesse Burkett. The 5th-place Cardinals improved to 34-29.

The critical at-bat for St. Louis came in the top of the tenth inning. With two out, Smith hit a run-scoring single, putting St. Louis up, 8-7.

"Good win for us," said Smith. "We'll strap it on and go after the next one."
