Cardinals Win at Chicago, 4-0
The St. Louis Cardinals dealt the Chicago Cubs a 4-0 loss at Wrigley Field. Karim Garcia was the star on offense. He went 1-3 with 2 walks. St. Louis reliever Francisco Cordova picked up the win, upping his record to 2-0. Mike Dunne shouldered the loss. The Cubs, at 3-11, have stumbled out of the gate.

With St. Louis leading 1-0 in the top of the second, Stan Javier hit a run-scoring single off Chicago pitcher Mike Dunne. It put the Cardinals ahead 2-0.

"It's no secret that good defense follows around people who throw strikes," said St. Louis manager Adam Rabel.
