Jordan Montgomery was masterful on the mound in the Cardinals 1-0 win over the Cubs at Wrigley Field. Montgomery struck out seven and gave up just one hit in a complete-game shutout. Montgomery earned his seventh win of the season with the dazzling performance, while Albert Pujols drove in the Cardinals only run with his 693rd career blast in the seventh inning. St. Louis has won eight in a row and leads the NL Central at 70-and-51. The Cardinals send Adam Wainwright and Jake Woodford to the mound in a split doubleheader against the Cubs today.
