Cubs Win, Now 6-4
Chris Stephenson left his imprint on the 8-5 Chicago win against the St. Louis Cardinals. Stephenson, who finished 4th in the NL in triples with 7 in 2025, was 2 for 4 with a home run and a walk, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. The win takes Chicago to 6-4.

With Chicago leading 2-1 in the bottom of the fourth, Stephenson hit a curveball from Owen Kellington for a grand slam home run. It was his 3rd home run of the season and put the Cubs ahead, 6-1.

Stephenson told the media after that game that the mood in the clubhouse is "extremely positive" after a win like that.
