The Chicago Cubs are down to one regular, left fielder Kyle Schwarber, for Saturday night’s game with the Cardinals. The Cardinals, with second baseman Kolten Wong still resting his strained left hamstring, are using the same eight players they have employed since Wong was hurt a week ago Thursday.
Dexter Fowler has struck out 11 times in his past three games and is five for 26 against Chicago starter Cole Hamels. He will remain in right field and bat first in the midst of a one-for-23 skid.
Paul DeJong, one for 16, is at shortstop. Marcell Ozuna is 14 for 102 but two for his last two.
