The St. Louis Cardinals edged the Chicago Cubs 6–5 on May 29 at Busch Stadium in a tight matchup where power proved decisive. The Cardinals connected for three home runs and drove in six runs despite managing only nine hits and posting a modest .706 OPS, while the Cubs' offense generated 11 hits with a slightly better .724 OPS but managed just one long ball and five RBIs. Both teams struck out eight times or fewer, and both pitching staffs posted identical 4.23 ERAs, underscoring the competitive nature of the contest. The Cardinals' three-homer advantage—a significant edge in a low-scoring game—ultimately separated the teams, as St. Louis capitalized on power opportunities where Chicago could not. Defensively flawless play from the home team prevented further damage. The Cubs' inability to convert their hit advantage into runs suggests offensive inconsistency could linger as they continue their road trip.
