Tudor Blanks Friars; Redbirds Move On

ST. LOUIS -- John Tudor (7-3) finished his strong season with a complete-game, 3-hit shutout in the play-in game versus 84 Padres. The 85 Cardinals now advance to play the 01 Diamondbacks in yet another do-or-die one-gamer. The winner of that contest has the right to play 90 Cincinnati in the 1-game Wild Card matchup. St. Loo won this game 6-0 and was led offensively by Terry Pendleton with 3 hits. Tony Gwynn had 2 of San Diego's 3 safeties.
