Cubs Over Cardinals, 6-4
Elijah Fairchild was a vital contributor to the 6-4 Chicago victory over St. Louis. The Cubs left fielder was 2 for 4 with a home run and a walk. He scored 3 runs. Angel Alvarez picked up the win with 7 innings of work. He allowed 2 runs on 6 hits, while walking 0 and striking out 3. On the season, he is now 11-7. Ryan Ahlstrom sewed up the save, his 7th.

Nick Criswell, the 23-year old first baseman , had a direct impact on the outcome. Criswell contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the fifth inning to put Chicago up, 4-2.

"We'll sip on a cold one and savor this win," said Criswell.

The second-place Cubs are now 88-65, the Cardinals 60-93.
