Tom Underwood, who never has lost to the Cardinals, beat them for the fourth straight time in his young career, pitching the Phillies to a 4-1 victory. Not only that, the lefthander actually won his own game, driving in the Phillies' first two runs with a bases-loaded single. The victory was the Phillies' 13th straight in games on the road.
