Cardinals Earn Late 3-2 Win
In a low-scoring affair between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Chicago Cubs, pitcher Bill McEnerney was the difference between victory and defeat. The St. Louis right-hander earned accolades for his stellar performance in the 3-2 Cardinals win. With the loss, Chicago sinks to 6-5.

Justin Brown was the walk-off hero for St. Louis. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Cardinals pinch hitter hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"I was a little disappointed," said Chicago manager Vin Calia. "We could've and should've scored more runs."
