In the fifth, Zach Norman singled, and Moni-Erigbali hit what looked to be a fly out to right field that kept carrying and landed just over the right field fence near the foul pole.

Haberer (7-4) left the game after six innings and allowed three runs and four hits.

The Cardinals missed a chance to score in the fourth. Ty Parker lofted a fly ball to right with one out and runners on second and third. Reid Gorecki, who was on third, tagged and came home, Evidently thinking there were two outs, the runner on second, Brian Martin, ran on the play and was doubled off before Gorecki could reach the plate.

Greg Bauer came on in the ninth for the Threshers to earn his first save of the year.
