Victory Over Cubs Takes St. Louis to 54-32
The exploits of left fielder Brian S Giles, the 3rd overall pick in the 1994 draft, helped the St. Louis Cardinals defeat the Chicago Cubs, 9-2. Giles was 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. St. Louis has a 3-game win streak, while Chicago has lost 3 in a row.

Stan Javier, who is a eight-time Gold Glove winner, aided the St. Louis cause with a run-scoring walk in the bottom of the third. For the game, the center fielder drew 1 walk.

"You've got to ride the highs and the lows in baseball in order to succeed," Giles told the St. Louis Gazette. "Right now I'm feeling good, but that don't mean squat for tomorrow."
