The second game of the doubleheader has become a battle for a three game series sweep with the Chicago Cubs. Lars Nootbar played the hero in the final inning of game one, scoring a walk-off single and securing the victory.

The win made the Cardinals 5-2 in doubleheaders thus far in 2022. In the four doubleheaders they have played, the Cardinals have not lost both games. With two split and one two-game sweep, the Cardinals are looking to improve on that record.
