Tyler Chatwood was the same guy he’s been all year, in that he had zero command of the zone. The Cardinals could still do nothing about it. Carpenter was finally muzzled when he popped out to LF on a 1-0 fastball, but Yadi took his easy walk and, after DeJong popped out to RF, stole 2B. But Marcell Ozuna swung through 3 would-be balls to strand him. Despite his wildness, Chatwood was made to throw just 16 pitches.
The Cubs wasted no time sticking it to Luke Weaver and the Cardinals.
