Cardinals Come Back Late, Nip Cubs
The St. Louis Cardinals topped the Chicago Cubs by the score of 5-4, with the biggest share of the credit going to center fielder Dylan Carlson. Carlson was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once for the Cardinals on the day. The Cardinals saw their record improve to 76-53.

The game came to a dramatic end. In the bottom of the ninth, with St. Louis trailing 4-3, Carlson hit a fastball from Michael Fulmer for a 2-run home run, giving the Cardinals the walk-off win.

"Great to get the crowd on its feet," Carlson said.
