The St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Oakland Athletics, 6-4. Doing his part was third baseman Albert Pujols, who went 2 for 4 with a home run. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. The victory gives St. Louis a record of 87-63.

With St. Louis trailing 3-2 in the bottom of the fifth, Pujols hit a changeup from Aaron Harang for a 3-run home run. It was his 45th home run of the season and put the Cardinals ahead, 5-3.

"Our approach was just to try to see something over the plate and be aggressive," Pujols told the St. Louis Chronicle.
