CHICAGO -- All-Star Javier Baez drove in two runs to raise his National League-leading total to 74 and back Tyler Chatwood, who initiated a well-timed double play that seemed to spark the Cubs to a 7-2 victory over the Cardinals on Saturday in the first game of a day-night doubleheader at Wrigley Field.
Chatwood gave up one hit -- Matt Carpenter's 24th home run -- over 5 1/3 innings. Chatwood did walk six to raise his Major League-leading total to 79, and it was the fifth time he's issued at least six walks in a start this season.
