Cardinals Dump Cubs, 7-6
The St. Louis Cardinals topped the Chicago Cubs, 7-6, with pinch hitter Josh Schlarb playing a big role. Schlarb went 1 for 1 with a home run, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once for the Cardinals in the win. The save was credited to Sam Stacy, his 35th. The 'W' lifts St. Louis's record to 87-68.

Had Schlarb not come through in the bottom of the seventh, who knows how the game would've ended? But with two down, Schlarb hit a 3-run home run. The Cardinals took the lead, 7-6, and never looked back.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Schlarb told the St. Louis Gazette.
