Brock breaks Cobb steal record as Cardinals drop to fourth
Lou Brock swiped his 892nd and 893rd bases to break Ty Cobb's record, but the St. Louis Cardinals still fell 4-3 to the San Diego Padres. The loss left them nine games behind Philadelphia in the NL East, with five straight defeats. Brock's speed fueled a early three run rally, then Dave Freisleben yielded nothing after the two steals. Mike Ivie belted a two run homer in the eighth to seal the Padres comeback.
