Summary
The Cubs clawed back for a gritty 6-4 win over the Cardinals after a tough weekend split, with Javier Assad and Shōta Imanaga anchoring the pitching staff. Sunday’s offense finally clicked, led by Alex Bregman’s RBI-double, Nico Hoerner’s sacrifice fly, and Tyler Ferguson’s three-run homer — plus some Cardinal errors. While not flashy, the win keeps playoff hopes alive. With the trade deadline looming, the bullpen’s needs are front and center — but internal gems like prospect Antoine Kelly and breakout catcher Owen Ayers are showing promise, hinting at a brighter future.
