Anthony Rizzo and the Cubs struck first in this meeting of the Cubs and Cardinals with the Cubs unofficial captain launching a three-run shot Friday afternoon. Daniel Descalso and Kris Bryant both walked ahead of Tony, and Rizzo took St. Louis starter Jack Flaherty deep to start the scoring. Rizzo has now homered in four of his last five games.
