CHICAGO (AP) — Kyle Gibson pitched two-hit ball over seven innings, Pedro Pagés broke a scoreless tie when he led off the eighth with his first career homer and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Chicago Cubs 3-0. Pagés, who came into the game with just four hits in 28 major league at-bats, gave the Cardinals the lead with a drive to the left-field basket against reliever Hayden Wesneski. The 25-year-old Venezuelan pointed toward the sky as he crossed the plate. Iván Herrera had an RBI double and Dylan Carlson added a run-scoring single as St. Louis added two runs in the ninth.
