The Chicago Cubs evened their NLDS against the St. Louis Cardinals with a 6-3 win on Saturday night in Game 2.

The Cubs fell behind 1-0 when Matt Carpenter led off the game with a homer, but then scored five unearned runs in the second inning and another run in the third. The Cardinals' Kolten Wong and Randal Grichuk crushed back-to-back homers in the fifth inning to make it closer.

Neither Cubs starter Kyle Hendricks nor Cardinals starter Jaime Garcia made it past the fifth inning.

The series now shifts to Chicago, where Cubs ace Jake Arrieta will start Game 3 on Monday.
