Cubs Snatch Late Win
The Chicago (N) Cubs downed the St. Louis Cardinals, 8-5. The hitting star was third baseman Joe Hunt. Hunt went 3 for 5 with a double and 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for the Cubs. The Cubs, at 61-63, sit in second place in the National League Central Division.

This game was not decided until late. With no one out in the top of the ninth, Tim Walsh hit a sacrifice fly. The Cubs took the lead, 6-5.

"I just try to go out and give it 100 percent every game," Hunt told a local reporter after the game. "That's my mantra, and like today, it will pay off more often than not."
