Andujar Shuts Down Dodgers in Tough Win on Run Support
The 32-year-old Andujar pitched a six hit shutout until Terry Whitfield homered in the ninth for the Dodgers. Whitey Herzog praised his pitcher for battling and using a running fastball. Andujar reflected on replacing George Hendrick, noting few knew he won 20 games last year as St. Louis built a 1-0 lead before holding on. He left runners stranded early and escaped a third inning threat with a double play and Al Oliver's double in the sixth.
