With two runs in the ninth inning the Cardinals flipped the Cubs and won 3-2 Sunday at Wrigley Field to complete their first four-game sweep at the ballpark since 1921. After Jose Martinez's triple led to a tie game two batters into the ninth, Paul Goldschmidt pulled a double down the right-field line to score Tommy Edman for the winner. It was the second time in as many games that the Cardinals tied the game and won the game in the ninth inning. They won with a homer in the 10th inning Thursday.
The berth in the playoffs is the Cardinals' first since 2015, and they are out to win their division for the first time since 2015.
