In the 8-3 Atlanta win over St. Louis, the impact of Rafael Furcal was substantial. Furcal was 2-3 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2. Tom Glavine, the winning pitcher, is now 4-11. He went 7.1 innings, allowing 3 runs on 4 hits, while fanning 7 and walking 3. Atlanta, at 55-56, sits in 4th place in the National League Eastern Division.

Furcal had a key at-bat for Atlanta in the bottom of the second. With a runner on 2nd, he hit a 2-run home run. It was his 10th home run of the season and gave Atlanta an early 2-0 lead.

"Baseball is about momentum," said Furcal, "and we feel we've got it in our favor after that win."
