Big Day with Bat: Ju 5-for-5
The Chicago Cubs might think twice next time about pitching to Xin Ju.

At Busch Stadium, the St. Louis Cardinals third baseman burned Chicago pitching, going 5-for-5 in the 6-2 St. Louis triumph.

"When he's on his game," St. Louis skipper Brock Naff told reporters, "he can probably stroke a base hit blindfolded."

Xin Ju singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, singled in the 7th and singled in the 8th.

Ju is currently batting .304 with 9 home runs and 39 RBIs.
