Jim Kaat, the Cardinals' 41-year-old lefthander, scattered six hits and did not issue a pass while posting a 6-1 victory over the Phillies. After the Phils picked up their lone run in the first inning, the Cards put Kaat on the road to victory with three in their half on a pass to Bobby Bonds, double by Garry Templeton, two-run single by Keith Hernandez and double by George Hendrick.
