Albert Pujols reached out and drove Drew Smyly’s high fastball through the night sky at Wrigley Field.
Just like that, it was over. Put Smyly on Pujols’ list.
Pujols hit career homer No. 693, Jordan Montgomery pitched a one-hitter and the St Louis Cardinals beat the Chicago Cubs 1-0 on Monday for their season-high eighth straight victory.
The teams play a split doubleheader Tuesday. Adam Wainright (9-8, 3.11 ERA) starts the opener for St. Louis, and Jake Woolford (2-0, 2.66 ERA) takes the mound for the second game.
