Mike Tyson, who went into the game batting only .231, drove in six runs with a single, double and homer as the Cardinals walloped the Padres, 12-4. Tyson plated three runs with a double in the first inning, added two with a homer in the fourth and picked up his sixth RBI with a single in the fifth. Ted Simmons also homered for the Cardinals, while the Padres had a two-run blow by Mike Ivie. [The Sporting News]
