Jose Cardenal collected six hits in seven trips in the opener and, after starting the nightcap on the bench, returned to action with one more hit in two at-bats as the Cubs swept a pair of overtime games from the Giants, each by the score of 6-5. In the first game, Cardenal hit four singles, a double and a homer. The single for his sixth hit scored Dave Rosello with two out in the 14th inning and brought the Cubs their victory.
