Cubs vs. Cardinals

     The past three days the Chicago Cubs have taken on the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium. This match-up is one of the key match-ups for both teams. In game 1, it was a duel between Dan Haren and Lance Lynn. Dan Haren went seven innings and gave up seven hits while Lance Lynn gave up seven hits but was pulled in the second inning. The Cubs were hitting very well and ended up receiving the W by the score of 9-0. In game 2 of the series, Jason Hammel and Michael Wacha went head-to-head in a pitching battle. Austin Jackson for the Cubs played extremely well. He had two hits with two runs to add to it. The Chicago Cubs were winning 8-0, scoring 17 straight runs, but in the seventh inning, the Cardinals went off. They scored 5 more runs and gave St. Louis fans hope. Nothing happened after that, giving the Cubs a win 8-5. In game 3, Jonathan Broxton and Clayton Richard were the starting pitchers. In the fifth inning, Coghlan made a SportsCenter top 10 play by diving into the stands! The Cubs were up 3-1 for most of the game 'till the bottom of the eighth when the Cardinals scored 3 runs. If you are a Cubs fan, you saw that coming since the bullpen always seems to let up in late innings. The Chicago Cubs travel to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania today with Jake Arrieta as pitcher. The St. Louis Cardinals go up against the the Reds in Cincinnati, Ohio with Jaime Garcia.
