Fine Effort by Pena Not Enough in 6-5 Cubs Loss
The St. Louis Cardinals had to overcome a big game from Chicago second baseman Geronimo Pena to leave Busch Stadium with a 6-5 victory. Pena was 2-2 with 2 home runs and 2 walks, while scoring 3 times and driving in 3. At 48-36, the Cardinals are currently second in the Federal League Central Division.

In the bottom of the sixth inning, third baseman Matt Williams came through big-time for the Cardinals. With St. Louis trailing 5-1, he belted a 3-run home run.

"It wasn't our best performance," said Williams, "but a win in this league is nothing to sniff at."
