Joe Torre knocked in a run with a single in the first inning and Ted Simmons homered with two men on base in the sixth to put the Cardinals ahead, 4-0, but the Padres picked up a pair in their half of the sixth and knotted the count with homers by Dave Roberts in the eighth and Jerry Morales in the ninth.
