This was the fourth loss for the Cubs in six games.
— Paul Goldschmidt slugged his 32nd and 33rd homers to highlight a five-RBI performance and position himself in the Triple Crown discussion, helping the St. Louis Cardinals roll to an 8-3 win Thursday over the Chicago Cubs.
Goldschmidt, Corey Dickerson and Tommy Edman collected three hits apiece as the NL Central-leading Cardinals won for the 10th time in their last 12 games and concluded a 6-2 trip. The Cubs lost for the fourth time in six games. Starter Marcus Stroman gave up 11 hits and five runs, all earned, in five innings. It was one more hit than he'd surrendered against them on June 3.
Goldschmidt hit a two-run single in the fourth off Stroman, then smacked a solo shot that landed near the top of the left-field bleachers off Sean Newcomb in the sixth and had a two-run shot in the eighth off Kervin Castro. "This guy has beat up on this club for a lot of years, and I wanted him to taste it one more time," Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said of his failed attempt to give Pujols a pinch-hitting appearance in the ninth inning.The Cubs expect three to four players won't travel to Toronto for a three-game series starting Monday, Cubs' President of Business Operations Jed Hoyer said. The names of the players will be disclosed Sunday in Milwaukee.
