Jay Murdock impressed in the 7-5 St. Louis win over Chicago. Murdock, who is tied for 7th in the NL in home runs with 25, went 2-2 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Evan Phillips was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 22 of 23 save opportunities. The 4th-place Cardinals now have a win-loss record of 51-54.

Jordan Walker was 2 for 3 with 2 singles for St. Louis. With one out and the game tied in the bottom of the seventh inning, Walker, who finished 4th in the NL in runs with 104 last year, had a clutch at-bat. Facing Chicago hurler Ben Brown, he hit a sacrifice fly to give the Cardinals a 6-5 lead.

"What's not to like about a win?" said Walker.
