rew to third and Adeiny Hechavarria was ruled out without a tag, then was in the dugout before the Marlins could react. Culbreth Antworten

ST. LOUIS -- A fireworks display from the nearby riverfront began before closer Edward Mujica took the mound. After the final out, the St. Louis Cardinals had their own little display. "Thats crazy," Mujica said after finishing off the Miami Marlins for a 4-1 victory Friday night. "I saw the people before the inning taking pictures and everything. Id never seen that before." The Cardinals saw what theyve seen all year from Mujica, the former setup man who capitalized on his chance with a perfect 21-for-21 start before finally blowing one on Thursday night. "Everybody has bad days sometimes," Mujica said. "You try to get here and turn the page. I knew what I did, I made a couple mistakes, and I went right after them." Jake Westbrook worked seven strong innings and Allen Craig had two RBIs for a lineup that spoiled Jacob Turners homecoming early on. "I was able to get ahead quite a bit tonight, but I wasnt able to put a lot of guys away," Turner said. "And I think thats what hurt me." Matt Holliday doubled twice with an RBI and Mujica rebounded for the Cardinals, who had lost eight of 11 and plummeted from the majors best record to second place in the NL Central entering a five-game homestand. The Marlins totalled three hits and lost for just the third time in 11 games. They flubbed a scoring chance in the fifth with an unusual double play off a sacrifice bunt attempt from Turner. "I saw guys out, everybody was out," manager Mike Redmond said. "I thought it was a triple play." The hard-throwing Turner (2-1), a former first-round pick from suburban St. Charles, Mo., and confidant of Cardinals manager Mike Matheny, surrendered four runs on seven hits in six innings. The 22-year-old entered with a 1.76 ERA his first six starts of the year and threw his first career complete game his last time out. Mathenys son Tate caught Turner for a handful of games at Westminster Christian Academy before Turner was the Tigers first-round pick in 2009. Matheny minimized his influence before the game, and afterward said knowledge of the back story wasnt a factor. "These guys, they know what theyre doing," Matheny said. "I could have watched every start he ever threw but its different once you get in the box. "They had a good game plan. They knew what they wanted to do." Westbrook (5-3) was hurt only by Logan Morrisons 440-foot homer to straightaway centre leading off the second that ended the right-handers streak of 23 innings without allowing an earned run at home to start the season. The sinkerballer got all three outs on ground balls five times and benefited from two double plays, one of them a bit unusual, and is 3-1 in his last four starts. "Controlling counts, you have to make them swing at it down there," Westbrook said. "To do that youve got to get ahead. I was able to do that tonight." Trevor Rosenthal struck out the side in the eighth before Mujica struck out two in a perfect ninth, less than 24 hours after giving up a game-tying two-run homer to the Angels Josh Hamilton in a 6-5 loss Thursday night. With runners on first and second and none out in the fifth, Turner was called out by home plate umpire Fieldin Culbreth after his sacrifice bunt attempt bounced off the plate and right to catcher Yadier Molina for a quick tagout. Molina threw to third and Adeiny Hechavarria was ruled out without a tag, then was in the dugout before the Marlins could react. Culbreth, speaking to a pool reporter from the Associated Press, called it an "unfortunate circumstance of three or four things taking place at once." He said he ruled on a fair ball and the out "basically simultaneously," then was distracted by complaints from Marlins third base coach Joe Espada. "In the middle of making both those calls, I think the runners, fielders and possibly even my colleagues couldnt see my actions as well," Culbreth said. "And thats what led to the confusion." Holliday and Craig doubled with two outs in the first to nearly identical drives to right-centre to put the Cardinals in front. They got RBI doubles from Holliday and Matt Adams plus a sacrifice fly from Craig in the third to make it 4-1. Craig is near the top of the National League with 68 RBIs and entered with a league-leading .469 average with runners in scoring position. A standing room crowd of 46,177 attracted by a Mike Shannon bobblehead giveaway gave the longtime Cardinals announcer a lengthy ovation before the seventh. Shannon left the stadium with four bobbleheads in a shopping bag. Notes: Joe Kelly (0-3, 3.86) makes a long-delayed first appearance as the Cardinals fifth starter since getting elevated to the rotation on June 22 on Saturday. Four starters had been enough because the Cardinals had three days off. Eovaldi (1-0, 2.00) makes his fourth start of the year for the Marlins. ... Morrison has three homers his last five games against the Cardinals. ... Adams has six RBIs his last six games. ... Hechavarria has nine hits during a five-game hitting streak. 00:00ET 06-07-13 Vente Nike Air Force 1 . "Thank you for the warm welcome," Beckham said on an 80-degree February morning.

If there was a single swing that made him The King, the driver Arnold Palmer hit on the first hole at Cherry Hills was it.Trailing by seven heading into the final round of the 1960 U.S. Open -- and angered by a sports writer who, during a lunch break, told him he had no chance at a comeback -- Palmer pulled the persimmon wood out on the tee box of the downhill, 346-yard hole. Palmer lashed at the balata-covered ball, which flew through the thin air, into the rough for one small hop, then tumbled onto the green.He made birdie and his greatest comeback was underway. He shot 65 to leapfrog a young amateur named Jack Nicklaus and a legend named Ben Hogan, while leaving the third-round leader, Mike Souchak, three shots behind.Today, theres a plaque commemorating Palmer on the first tee box at Cherry Hills. Two years ago, when the PGA Tour stopped at the iconic course near Denver for a tournament, pros were given a chance to duplicate Palmers shot using persimmon and balata, the way he did back in the day.Nobody could do it.As if there were any doubt: There is no other King.Palmer died Sunday afternoon of complications from heart problems. He was 87. He was admitted to UPMC Hospital in Pittsburgh on Thursday for some cardiovascular work, then weakened.His death brings back waves of memories of his finest performances, none more so that the comeback at Cherry Hills that came during an era when the final 36 holes were played on Saturday and the break between the third and fourth rounds was long enough to grab lunch.Palmer asked sports writers Bob Drum and Dan Jenkins how far they thought a 65 might go in the final round. It would leave him at 280.Doesnt 280 always win the Open? Palmer asked.Yeah, when Hogan shoots it, Jenkins replied.Drums response: Wont do you a damn bit of good.Palmer was so mad, he said, he couldnt finish his hamburger.The exchange with Drum set the fire off inside, not that it wasnt there, Palmer said. All I know is, I was pretty upset.He hit a few practice shots, went to the first tee, and a few hours later, he had his third major championship and first at the U.S. Open.Other victories Palmer will be long remembered for:1954 U.S. Amateur:A 24-year-old Palmer beat Bob Sweeney to win the National Amateur golf championship in Detroit, Michigan on August 28, 1954. The match pitted a graying millionaire playboy against the upstart Palmer in what many dubbed a battle of the classes.1955 Canadian Open:Palmer captured the Canadian Open championship, his first PGA Tour victory, at the Weston Golf Club. Palmer set a record that held for many years as the lowest score- he finished -23 -- in Open history. To celebrate Westons 75th anniversary in 1990, a Skins game was held featuring Arnold Palmer, Mark Calcavecchia, Ray Floyd and Dave Barr.1958 Masters:Palmer arrived at the Masters with eight titles but very little professional major championship experience. He had yet to play in a British Open or PGA Championship, and had finished tied for seventh a yyear earlier at the Masters.dddddddddddd A third-round 68 vaulted him into a tie for the lead with Sam Snead.Palmer and Ken Venturi, who was three strokes back, were paired for the final round, and Venturi trailed by just one stroke by the 12th hole. Then Palmers tee shot to the par-3 hole landed behind the green and plugged. Palmer believed he was entitled to relief because the ball was embedded, and Venturi agreed.But the rules official on the scene did not. He ruled Palmer had to play without relief. There was an argument, Palmer eventually played the ball and gouged it out of the turf, hitting a poor chip past the hole, then two-putting for a double-bogey 5.Venturi had made par and assumed the lead. But Palmer announced he was playing a second ball and made par.Venturi has always believed Palmer played the second ball incorrectly.There was never a question in my mind that I wasnt right about the 12th hole, said Palmer, who went on to win by a shot over Fred Hawkins and Doug Ford and by two over Venturi.1960 Masters:Palmer birdied the final two holes to win by one stroke over runner-up Ken Venturi. It was the second of Palmers four Masters victories and the second of his seven major titles.Palmer, age 30 at the time, also won the U.S. Open in 1960 and was the runner-up at the British Open.Palmer was the sole leader after all four rounds and was the second wire-to-wire winner at the Masters, following Craig Wood in 1941. Subsequent wire-to-wire winners were Nicklaus in 1972, Raymond Floyd in 1976, and Jordan Spieth in 2015.1961 British Open:Palmer won the first of two consecutive British Open Championships by finishing one stroke ahead of Dai Rees. Hed been runner-up the year before in his first Open, but the 1961 victory was the fourth of his seven major titles. He was the first Ame
