Cardinals look to rebound
The Brewers remain in first place in the NL Central, but the marquee rivalry in the division is still Cubs-Cardinals, and those two square off in Busch Stadium Saturday evening.
Both teams limped into the series, relatively speaking. The Cardinals had gone just 4-5 against the three last-place teams in the NL divisions while the Cubs had been shut out in consecutive games by the Brewers (of course, the Cubs had won 12 of 15 before that, so -- as noted -- it's all relative).
After the first game of the series, the Cardinals are licking their wounds. The Cubs cruised to a 13-5 win (it was 11-1 when the Cubs called the dogs off). Kris Bryant and Kyle Schwarber homered to break out of their respective funks.
