ST. LOUIS (AP) — Andre Pallante threw seven strong innings, Blaze Jordan hit an RBI double and Nathan Church added an RBI single as the St. Louis Cardinals beat the San Diego Padres 3-2 on Tuesday night.
Pallante (8-4) struck out six while giving up two runs on four hits, and Riley O’Brien earned his 18th save.
Lars Nootbaar opened the second inning with a walk before he scored on Jordan’s first double of the season. Church singled and Jordan gave St. Louis a 2-0 lead.
Nootbaar capped the Cardinal’s scoring with a sacrifice fly to center field in the fifth to put the Cardinals up 3-1.
JJ Wetherholt finished 3 for 4 with a walk for St. Louis — tying a season-high in hits for the fourth time this season. Wetherholt became the second rookie this season with 65+ hits and 10+ home runs.
Michael King (4-6) took the loss after allowing three runs on five hits in 4 1/3 innings.
Ty France hit an RBI single in the fifth that scored a run before being thrown out at second while trying to leg out a double. Jackson Merrill had a one-run double in the sixth that scored Fernando Tatis Jr. but that was it for the Padres to cap a four-hit night.
The Cardinals became the fifth National League team to reach 40 wins this season.
Up next
RHP Kyle Leahy (5-3, 4.64 ERA) takes the mound for the Cardinals, while the Brewers have yet to announce a starter for the series finale on Wednesday.
