Enhanced Box Score: Cardinals 0, Cubs 5 – May 29, 2010

CUBS LINEUP — Before today's finale, the Chicago Cubs have won three of four Rubber Matches this season: Dodgers (win), Padres (loss), Mariners (win), and Diamondbacks (win). Let's see if they can make it four out of five. Chicago Cubs...

As expected, Jordan Wicks is hitting the injured list with the always-dreaded left forearm strain. But he's not the only Cubs lefty on his way out the door this Sunday afternoon. Sahadev Sharma has the scoop on the three other...
