Cardinals Sneak By Cubs, 7-6
The St. Louis Cardinals beat the Chicago Cubs, 7-6, at Wrigley Field 1979-2005. The win was due in part to left fielder Jason Kendall, who went 1-2 with a home run. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4. Trevor Hoffman notched his 26th save in 35 chances. With the win, St. Louis pushed its record to 70-70.

A key moment came when Kendall faced Chicago hurler Chad Fox in the top of the eighth. The Cardinals, who were trailing 5-3, had runners on 1st and 2nd. Kendall got a first pitch slider and hit a 3-run home run.

"I like the grit of this ballclub," Kendall said.
