Padres Get Past St. Louis for 7-6 Win
The San Diego Padres beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 7-6, at Busch Stadium. The win was due in part to first baseman Miguel Mercedes, who went 4 for 5 with a double and 3 singles. Craig Kimbrel, credited with the win in relief, is now 1-1. He allowed no runs on no hits in 0.2 innings. Steve Huff earned the save, his 25th.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Mike Hollingsworth? The San Diego designated hitter had a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Padres on top, 7-6. For the game, Hollingsworth had 1 double and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

"Nothing is scripted in this game," said Mercedes.

The last-place Padres lifted their record to 49-55.
