Cards Up 10
Cards have 10 game lead over Cubs (Mike Dodd, USA Today, 7/21/2004)

I must say, I do not particularly care for the National League Base Ball Club from St. Louis, Missouri.
Redbird Nation is loving it, and even appropriates the title of this game–The Sandberg Game–by calling today’s game The Pujols Game.
