Bob Watson and Enos Cabell each batted in two runs to enable Joaquin Andujar to pitch the Astros to a 5-1 victory over the Padres. Andujar had not beaten the Padres previously, losing to them three times last year and once this season. Cabell accounted for his RBIs with a homer while Watson batted in his pair with an infield out and double. [The Sporting News]
