Cubs 3 Cards 0…The Chicago Cubs got to salvage a four game series with the St.Louis Cardinals that ended in a 2 to 2 tie. The Cubs got 5 strong innings from Shota Imanaga who has just returned from injured reserve. Michael Busch started the scoring with a solo home run in the second inning. The north siders added two more runs and never looked back. The game was not without controversy however as Wilson Contreras a former Cubs catcher, nearly started a brawl at the end of the game. With the Cubs leading 3 to 0 in the ninth Daniel Palencia hit Wilson with a pitch.Daniel closed out the game, but Wilson barked loudly and the benches cleared.It was all sabre rattling,though there could be some fireworks for the July fourth weekend when the Cards visit Wrigley to play first place Chicago.
