On Sunday, the Chicago Cubs placed leadoff men on base in four of the six innings he pitched — three of them on doubles — and another would have been on but for a sliding catch by left fielder Matt Holliday to start the sixth inning. This time, Wainwright allowed nothing.Wainwright held the Cubs hitless in 11 at-bats with men in scoring position and 13 at-bats with anybody on as the Cardinals posted a 3-0 win on a chilly 44-degree night at Wrigley Field.Rick Hummel St Louis Post-Dispatch
"It kind of reminds me of the Marlins (in 2012) when they opened up their new stadium and got all the new players in there, There was a lot of excitement going into that game as well. I love playing in atmospheres like that.The crowd was buzzing tonight like it was the World Series. It was really awesome. I felt privileged to be out there pitching in front of it. I love pitching here in Chicago. It's one of my favorite places."Adam Wainwright Paul Sullivan Chicago Tribune
