ST. LOUIS (AP) — Paul Goldschmidt homered twice and Sonny Gray tossed five scoreless innings to help the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Chicago Cubs 4-3 in game delayed more than 2 1/2 hours at the start by rain. St. Louis has won five in a row for the first time since winning six straight from July 15-20, 2023, and has won 10 of its last 12. Gray allowed one hit and struck out eight. Ryan Helsley held on for his 17th save. Chicago starter Javier Assad allowed four runs and five hits and struck out a career-best eight batters in five innings. Ian Happ homered twice for the Cubs.
