In the sixth inning, St. Louis added another run from two hits but still trailed behind as Chicago scored another run in the seventh inning from one hit and an error by St. Louis.

The eighth inning proved pivotal for both teams. The Cubs failed to capitalize on their three hits while remaining scoreless during this frame.
