 ST. LOUIS (AP) - Gary Bennett won a game for St. Louis with two outs in the ninth for the second straight day, hitting a grand slam Sunday night to give the Cardinals a 10-6 victory over the Chicago Cubs.
Bennett hit the game-winning single in a 2-1 victory Saturday and topped that with his first career grand slam off Bob Howry (3-5). It's his second career game-winning homer and the Cardinals' first game-winning slam since David Eckstein beat the Braves on Aug. 7, 2005.
It was the fourth homer of the year for Bennett. All have come since Aug. 18.
