Cardinals secure series win against White Sox after loss to Giants

Summary

The St. Louis Cardinals bounced back from a sweep by the San Francisco Giants to win two of three games against the Chicago White Sox at Busch Stadium over the weekend. Leo Bernal led the team offensively, hitting six times, including two home runs, and driving in seven runs. The Cardinals honored their 2006 World Series championship team and inducted their 2026 Hall of Fame class, including Albert Pujols and Yadier Molina. Despite the recent success, the bullpen's struggles persisted, with Riley O’Brien and George Soriano both recording blown saves through the week. Approximately seven games back in the National League wild card race, the Cardinals face an uphill battle as they enter the final weeks of the season.
