Tommy Pham drove in all three of the Cardinals’ runs, and St. Louis defeated the San Diego Padres 3-1 Sunday afternoon to split the four-game series.
Pham, who made his 2015 debut with the Cardinals on Friday, stepped up to the plate in the bottom of the third with Cardinals pitcher Lance Lynn standing on first base. Lynn, who went 2 for 2 on the afternoon, singled in the third.
Pham then loaded up on San Diego pitcher Ian Kennedy and slugged a 370-foot two-run home run over the left field wall to take a 2-1 lead over the Padres.
