Although batting only .207, Hector Cruz raised his season's RBI total to 53, high among N. L. rookies, by driving in four of the Cardinals' runs in a 9-4 victory over the Padres. Keith Hernandez batted in their first two tallies with a single in the first inning. Cruz picked up an RBI with a grounder in the third and then doubled with the bases loaded to plate three runs in the fourth.
