A three-run uprising in the sixth inning spurred the Cardinals to an 8-3 decision over the Giants. The Redbirds broke a 3-3 tie on an RBI groundout by Keith Hernandez and two-run infield single by Glenn Brummer. Ken Oberkfell, who had a run-scorng single in the fourth, iced the game with a two-run triple in the seventh. Dave LaPoint, going 6 2/3 innings, received credit for his third victory.
