Exploding for 10 runs in the third inning, the Cardinals drubbed the Padres, 15-3, completing the three-game series sweep. George Hendrick had two hits and drove in two runs in the big frame. Bobby Bonds collected two hits and scored twice.

Padres reliever John D'Acquisto walked in two tallies and allowed another to score on a wild pitch. Keith Hernandez added to the Redbirds' margin with the three-run homer in the seventh inning. [The Sporting News]
