No one was more impactful than Larry Buckley in the 7-5 Louisville win over St. Louis. Buckley, who leads the FL in extra base hits with 60, was 2 for 2 with a home run, a triple, and 3 walks, while scoring 2 and driving in 3. With this game in the books, Louisville is 63-44, St. Louis 56-55.

Louisville grabbed the momentum in the top of the fifth, when Buckley hit a run-scoring triple off Wilton Strickland. His 13th triple of the season put the Colts out in front, 3-2.

Buckley told a Louisville Daily reporter that the win made him feel "invigorated."
