The Los Angeles Dodgers fell to the St. Louis Cardinals 6-1, the first meeting between the two teams this season. The game was a pitchers' duel until St. Louis scored four times in the seventh inning to take a commanding lead. Matt Holliday, Julio Lugo and Mark DeRosa, all three being mid-season trade acquisitions, combined for three runs scored and three RBI's for the Cards, with DeRosa homering. Brandon Ryan had four hits and two runs-batted-in, and Rick Ankiel scored twice. Rafael Furcal had three hits and drove in the only Dodger run, and Matt Kemp scored the only run.
Hong-Chih Kuo was activated from the 60-day disabled list, and pitched a scoreless inning of relief. Xavier Paul was transferred from the 15-day DL to the 60-day to make room on the 40-man roster.
