Cardinals 5, Cubs 3  (12-8)

The Cardinals turned the tables on the Cubs this time and scored most of their runs via the long ball.  Orlando Cepeda had a nice game and he went three for four with two solo homers.  Mike Shannon hit a solo homer and Dal Maxvil went two for four with an RBI.

Al Jackson picked up the win with a solid outing.  He gave up three runs on six hits and three walks with three strikeouts in 8 1/3 innings.  Ron Willis got the final two batters out and he picked up his second save of the season.
