Cardinals Need Extra Innings to Top Padres, 5-3 | The San Diego Padres got a superb performance from pitcher Glen Appel. Still, it wasn't enough to beat St. Louis. The Cardinals won the game, 5-3. Appel threw 6.1 innings of 4-hit ball. St. Louis reliever Ernie Ibayashi picked up the win to move to 6-4. Doug Foreman suffered the loss. With the win, St. Louis pushed its record to 62-47.
St. Louis used the timely hitting of Héctor Pacho to seize the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the tenth inning to put the Cardinals on top, 4-3. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.
Pacho told the St. Louis Times: "Win or lose, I don't want to see our team outhustled." | | | | |
