Cubs Top Cardinals in Extras, 8-7
The Chicago Cubs stopped the St. Louis Cardinals, 8-7, at Busch Stadium. The Cubs got a big game from Efrain Vargas, who went 2-4 with 2 home runs and 2 walks, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. Chicago reliever George Poirier picked up the win to move to 4-4. J.J. Sykes suffered the loss. Chicago, at 51-43, is 6 games up in the National League Central Division.

Chicago used the timely hitting of Tim Hone to seize the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the 11th inning to put the Cubs on top, 8-7. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"What a great win for our team," said a jubilant Mergatroid Skittle, the Chicago manager.
