## Resource

Matthew Liberatore battled through a shaky start against the Cubs, walking and hitting batters early, but showed resilience to stay in the game. The Cardinals’ hopes crumbled in the sixth when a single tied it and a third baseman’s throwing error handed the lead to Chicago. Errors and wild throws snowballed, turning a close game into a blowout. Despite rallying to within two runs in the eighth, they fell short in the ninth, ending with a gut-wrenching loss fueled by defensive lapses. Now, they face a tough Brewers series and must regroup fast to avoid another collapse.
