Garcia trumps Lackey as Cards edge Cubs

There's no love between these teams, and both were issued a warning by home plate umpire Pat Hoberg after Garcia hit Kris Bryant with a pitch with two outs in the fifth. Moss, who hit his 16th homer with one out in the second, was plunked by Lackey with two outs in the Cardinals' half of the fifth. Both sides behaved after that.

Trevor Rosenthal, who had given up four runs in his last two outings, pitched around two hits in the ninth for his 13th save. Chicago still leads the season series, 4-3, and has an 11 1/2-game lead over St.
