Cubs Topple Cardinals, 7-4
The Chicago Cubs grabbed a win, 7-4, over the St. Louis Cardinals at Wrigley Field 1979. Chicago right fielder Gary Ward went 2 for 4 with a home run. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. Chicago reliever Robert Weismiller picked up the win, upping his record to 5-1. Larry Yount took the loss. Matt Keough was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 1 of 1 save opportunities.

The Cardinals had been locked in a 4-4 tie with the Cubs going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the top prospect Johnny Grubb came to the plate. Grubb hit a 2-run double on a 2-2 changeup from St. Louis hurler Larry Yount. It was Grubb's 4th double of the year.

"We put it together today and came out with the win," Ward said in postgame remarks. "That's the main thing."

With the win, Chicago upped its record to 37-36.
