 ST. LOUIS (AP) - Jim Edmonds and Reggie Sanders homered off previously unbeaten Matt Clement, and Jeff Suppan worked six solid innings in the St. Louis Cardinals' 9-2 victory over the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday night.
The Cardinals have won the first two games of the three-game interleague series by a combined score of 16-3, four more runs than they mustered last fall in a World Series they never led.
The action turned testy in the last four innings when five players were hit by pitches, three of them Cardinals including Larry Walker twice. Both benches were warned in the seventh after Mark Grudzielanek, the third player to be hit and the second Cardinal, was hit in the back by Matt Mantei.
