The Cubs scored 17 runs, so they naturally had a number of big offensive performances:
* Emilio Bonifacio 4-5 with a walk and five runs scored
* Junior Lake 3-5 with two doubles, a homer, and five RBI
* Starlin Castro 3-5 with a double and a triple
* Mike Olt 2-5 with a homer
This was one of just eight MLB appearances for Cardinal reliever Eric Fornataro, and Daniel Descalso had to be summoned to get the last out after Randy Choate had allowed six runs in the ninth. But the most interesting thing might be Yadier Molina stealing third with two outs in the fifth on a 1-2 pitch with his team trailing 9-5. Travis Wood must have never seen it coming.
