Montreal 12, San Diego 5

MONTREAL, May 8 (UPI) -- Brad Wilkerson and Wil Cordero both had three hits and three RBI Thursday night and Tomo Ohka pitched eight innings as the Montreal Expos completed a three-game sweep of the San Diego Padres with a 12-5 victory.

Ohka (3-4) retired just two batters last Friday and gave up five runs and six hits in an 8-1 loss at St. Louis. But he limited the Padres to three runs and eight hits, walking two and striking out two while matching his longest outing of the season.

The Expos gave the Japanese righthander a cushion to work with, scoring six times off Brian Lawrence (2-4) in the first inning. Wilkerson had a two-run single, Cordero followed with an RBI base hit and Fernando Tatis delivered a two-run double before scoring on an error by second baseman Keith Lockhart.

Cordero added a two-run double in the second to extend Montreal's lead to 9-1 and Wilkerson doubled in Henry Mateo in the seventh to make it 11-3.

Vladimir Guerrero chipped in three hits and two RBI and Orlando Cabrera had two hits and scored three runs for the Expos, who completed their first three-game home sweep of the Padres since July 18-20, 1994.

Lawrence (2-4) surrendered 10 runs and nine hits in 2 2/3 innings, the shortest outing of his career.

Rondell White and Mike Rivera homered for San Diego, which has lost five straight and 10 of its last 11 games.
