Cardinals 3, Dodgers 2

ST. LOUIS--Ozzie Smith, the least likely man in the St. Louis lineup, homered with one out in the ninth inning to give the Cardinals a 3-2 victory over Los Angeles in the pivotal fifth game of the National League playoffs yesterday.

With the victory, the Cardinals swept the three games in their home park and took a 3-2 lead as the best-of-seven series moves back to Los Angeles.

The homer came on an 0-1 pitch from Tom Niedenfuer and was the first that the switch-hitting Smith has hit batting left-handed in 2968 career at-bats. He had only six homers this season.

Both squads squandered several opportunities during the game.
