ST. LOUIS (AP) — Willson Contreras hit a tiebreaking single in the 10th inning to drive in his third run of the game, and the Chicago Cubs overcame a five-run deficit to be the St. Louis Cardinals 6-5.
St. Louis led 5-0 but starter Jack Flaherty left after two innings because of right shoulder tightness, and the Cubs tied the score with a five-run fourth.
The Cardinals have lost three of their last four games and seven of their last 10.
Contreras hit a tying two-run single in the fourth and led off the 10th with an RBI single off Zack Thompson.
