Cardinals seek series win as Cubs’ Quintana makes Wrigley debut

CHICAGO — Jose Quintana was impressive in his first game as a Chicago Cub, striking out 12 in seven scoreless innings on July 16 at Baltimore.

Now he’ll make his Wrigley Field debut with his new team.

Quintana, a left-hander and 2016 All-Star, will face the St. Louis Cardinals in the series finale on Sunday night.

It’s Quintana’s first home game with the Cubs since they acquired him from the Chicago White Sox for four minor leaguers on July 13.

Quintana is 2-0 with a 1.59 ERA in two career starts against St. Louis. Both outings were at Busch Stadium, and the most recent was in 2015.
