ST. LOUIS (Reuters) - After getting shut out by the St. Louis Cardinals in the National League Division Series opener, the Chicago Cubs were determined to put runs on the board in Saturday's Game Two by any means necessary.
Mission accomplished, as the Cubs scratched out an unusual five-run rally in the second inning that carried them to a 6-3 victory over the top-seeded Cardinals that evened the best-of-five 1-1.
Two errors led to the five unearned runs, with Cubs manager Joe Maddon putting pressure on the Cards with back-to-back squeeze bunts that scored runners from third each time.
