Cubs ride 7-run 6th to eventful win over Cards
The Cardinals-Cubs rivalry has historically been intense enough on its own, but it’s overamped this weekend because of the close National League Central race. On Friday at Wrigley Field, the Cubs showed they’re going to fight for the chance to repeat. Despite losing both starting pitcher John Lackey and catcher Willson Contreras to ejections, the Cubs rallied for an 8-2 victory.
