Erupting for three runs in the first inning, the Cardinals went on to a 5-3 victory over the Padres. Bobby Bonds opened the first with a walk, stole second and came home on a single by Garry Templeton. After a single by Keith Hernandez and a double steal, both runners scored on a double by Ted Simmons. Bob Forsch helped himself to the victory, driving in what proved to be the deciding run with a single in the sixth. [The Sporting News]
