The Cubs were shut out by the Cardinals today, marking the fifth time in seven games at Wrigley Field that the Cubs failed to score.
But that all played second fiddle to Dale Sveum benching Starlin Castro, mid-game, for a serious mental lapse with the bases loaded. Castro appeared to forget how many outs there were or was distracted/confused by the infield fly rule on a pop up to short, and Jon Jay tagged from third and scored.
