Ken Oberkfell's run-scoring single in the ninth inning proved decisive when the Cardinals outlasted the Braves, 10-9 in a 29-hit swatfest. Claudell Washington hit a home run and Dale Murphy unloaded a two-run blast, his 11th homer of the season and second of the game, against Bruce Sutter in the ninth. Tito Landrum hit his first major league homer for the Cards in the second inning. [The Sporting News]
