That sinking feeling
ST. LOUIS -- In a beer-guzzling town, the Cardinals were going crazy Friday night about being seven up. That's a sobering fact for the stumbling Cubs, who suddenly are being forced to ponder their National League wild-card chances before the All-Star break arrives.

Maggs-nificent return
Even as he was announced as the designated hitter, Magglio Ordonez brought fans to their feet Friday night at U.S. Cellular Field.

Gordon ups pole roll to 4
When it rains, it pours. Jeff Gordon tried to credit a two-hour rain delay with giving him the time to tinker with his car and the cooler, faster track conditions that helped him win his fourth consecutive pole Friday.
