Cards tie Padres in sixth inning

The Cardinals and San Diego Padres are tied 1-1 in the sixth inning.

Tommy Pham, who made his 2015 debut Friday night, led off the bottom of the inning with a double. It was his first major league hit.

Matt Carpenter then stepped up to the plate and was worked to a 3-2 count by San Diego pitcher Odrisamer Despaigne. Carpenter then smacked a single into right field, and Pham crossed home plate to tie the game.

Jason Heyward walked, but the Cardinals left two base runners stranded after Yadier Molina and Kolten Wong both struck out.
