 ST. LOUIS (AP) - Larry Walker had three of St. Louis' season-high 19 hits and drove in three runs, backing a strong seven-inning effort by Jeff Suppan in the Cardinals' 9-3 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday night.
David Eckstein had four hits and an RBI to extend his hitting streak to 12 games for St. Louis, which has won seven of eight at home against the Dodgers counting the playoffs. Of the Cardinals' 19 hits, only three were for extra bases.
Twelve of the hits came off Brad Penny (2-1), who lasted 4 2-3 innings and allowed six runs in his fourth start following a biceps injury last August.
