Cubs Use Late-Game Magic to Beat Cardinals, 5-2
The St. Louis Cardinals got a superb performance from pitcher Andy Otero. Still, it wasn't enough to beat Chicago. The Cubs won the game, 5-2. Otero threw 7.0 innings allowing 2 runs. Chicago reliever Max Johnson was the winner. His record is now 2-0. The losing pitcher was Gavin Miller. The last-place Cubs have won 4 straight.

Chicago took a 5-2 lead on Red Elder's 13th double of the season. The bases-clearing double, which Elder hit in the bottom of the eighth, left St. Louis pitcher Eric Carroll visibly frustrated.

In postgame comments to the Chicago Times, Elder said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
