Thon Helps Cardinals Run Win Streak to 5
The St. Louis Cardinals knocked off the Pittsburgh Pirates, 14-6, at Three Rivers Stadium. Dickie Thon, who captured player of the game honors, was a big reason St. Louis won. The shortstop was 4 for 5 with 4 singles, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2. Gregg Olson got the save, his 5th in 8 chances. St. Louis now has a 5-game win streak.

With St. Louis leading 9-0 in the top of the sixth, Royce Clayton hit a bases-clearing triple off Pittsburgh pitcher Bruce Berenyi. It put the Cardinals ahead 12-0.

"We'll pop the top on a cold one and get back to work tomorrow," Clayton said.
