(AP) -- Rafael Furcal singled home the winning run with two outs in the 12th inning and St. Louis Cardinals dampened the Dodgers debut of Hanley Ramirez, beating Los Angeles 3-2 Wednesday night.
 
Ramirez tripled on the first pitch he saw with his new team.

The three-time All-Star infielder, acquired late Tuesday night from Miami, went 2 for 4 with a walk. He drove in a run and scored once.
 
Lance Berkman, who left a day earlier with a bruised right knee after being hit by a pitch, drew a one-out walk as a pinch hitter in the St. Louis 12th from Jamey Wright (4-3).

Matt Carpenter singled with two outs and Furcal drove home pinch runner Joe Kelly.
