Wainwright exits with injury as Cardinals get swept again at Wrigley

The Cubs snapped a tie game against an injured Adam Wainwright in the fifth inning and spun two errors and a late homer into a 5-1 victory Sunday night at the Friendly Confines. The win completed a three-game sweep for the Cubs, their second in as many visits by the Cardinals this season. The last time the Cardinals started a season with six losses in their first six games in Chicago was 1907, seven years before Wrigley opened and back when the Cubs were kings. What’s old is new, and what’s going wrong for the Cardinals is getting old.
