April 11th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

CINCINNATI (AP) — Matt Adams delivered his first home run of the season and the St. Louis Cardinals snapped the Cincinnati Reds’ season-opening winning streak at four with a 4-1 win on Saturday. Kolten Wong drove in a run with a sacrifice fly, Jhonny Peralta and Yadier Molina added ninth-inning run-scoring singles and Michael Wacha pitched into the seventh inning to get the win in his first appearance of the season.

Wacha (1-0) shook off Todd Frazier’s first-inning home run to go 6 1-3 innings, allowing five hits and one run with a walk and two strikeouts. He stranded a runner in scoring position in each of his last four full innings. The Reds left five runners in scoring position.

Trevor Rosenthal, the Cardinals’ fifth relief pitcher, got the last five outs for his second save.

Police in Council Bluffs have identified a child who died after falling from a bunk bed ladder. According to Sgt. Chad Meyers, 18 month old Jayden Suriano was playing with his 3-year-old brother when he fell off the ladder. Emergency responders took the boy to a local hospital, where doctors pronounced him dead. The accident happened around 10:30 a.m. Friday at the Featherstone Apartments.

Meyers says the boys were playing in an upstairs bedroom when the toddler fell off the ladder. The child’s father was at home at the time. Police say foul play is not suspected. An autopsy has been ordered.
