CARDINALS TAKE TWO OF THREE ON ROAD AT WHITE SOX IN RETURN TO PLAY: The St. Louis Cardinals took two of three games over the weekend at the Chicago White Sox as the team returned to play after having been quarantined due to the COVID-19 virus passing through the club.
The Cardinals swept a Saturday doubleheader at Guaranteed Rate Field, defeating the ChiSox 5-1 and 6-3 in their return to the field for the first time since July 29 in a loss at the Minnesota Twins, but lost on Sunday 7-2.
In the first game of Saturday's doubleheader, which was a seven-inning game, as all doubleheaders will be during the shortened MLB season, a two RBI single by Dexter Fowler keyed a four-run first inning, followed by a run in the fourth, thanks to a Chicago error, extended the lead to 5-1. Adam Wainwright allowed only one run on two hits in five innings to get the win, striking out three.
In the second game, the Cardinals rallied from a 3-1 deficit to score five unanswered runs late, keyed by a fifth inning Tyler O'Neill home run as part of a four-run fifth inning that decided the nightcap. Andrew Miller closed out the sweep to give the Redbirds the win.
On Sunday, the White Sox hit four straight homers off of rookie pitcher Roel Ramirez to break open a tight game and win the last game of the series. It's the first time in Cardinal history that an opposing team had hit four straight homers off a pitcher, only the 10th time in MLB history.
The Cardinals are now 4-4, and will play at the Chicago Cubs in a five-game set this week, including a pair of doubleheaders, the second and third of a total of 11 twin-bills the team will play as they catch up on their schedule..

SCHENN'S OVERTIME GOAL BRINGS BLUES BACK TO 2-1 DEFICIT AGAINST VANCOUVER: A Brayden Schenn goal at 15:06 of overtime gave the St. Louis Blues a 3-2 win in game three of their best-of-seven quarterfinal series against the Vancouver Canucks on Sunday night as the Blues officially opened their defense of the 2019 Stanley Cup championship this week at Rogers Place in Edmonton, Alberta, the site of the Western Conference phase of the playoffs.
Schenn's goal broke a five-game losing streak since the Blues entered the Edmonton bubble made possible because of the COVID-19 pandemic, and cu the Canucks' lead in the series to 2-1 after having won the first two games this week. Vancouver won game one last Wednesday night 5-2 and game two on Friday night 4-3 in overtime.
Justin Faulk and David Perron scored in the second period to give the Blues their first lead of the series, but the lead lasted all of 37 seconds when Vancouver tied the game off a bad giveaway in the St. Louis end.
Game four of the series will be played Monday night at 9:30 p.m. St. Louis time, and game five will be played Wednesday night, with the time to be announced by the National Hockey League.
