CHICAGO -- Adam Wainwright and the St. Louis Cardinals have hit rock bottom in their topsy-turvy season. Or at least they hope so.Wainwright was pounded for seven runs in two innings in a 13-2 rout at the hands of the Chicago Cubs on Friday. The Cardinals fell a season-high 14 games behind the Cubs in the NL Central, their largest deficit since the final month of the 2008 season.Wainwright (9-7) allowed six hits and three walks to remain winless since July 16. The three-time All-Star is 0-2 in his last five starts, during which he allowed 21 runs in 25 2/3 innings.I was horrible, said Wainwright, who called the start and the season the worst of his career. Thats all you can say -- I pitched terrible. My stuff was bad, my delivery was bad, everything was bad. The team deserves more than that.Matt Szczur hit two home runs and the Cubs won their 11th straight game, their longest streak since a 12-game run in 2001. They improved the best record in the majors to 73-41.The outing matched the shortest for Wainwright in his career. Five days earlier, he labored through six innings and 108 pitches in a 6-3 loss to the Atlanta Braves.We made him do the exact same thing the last time and throw a 100-plus pitches, manager Mike Matheny said. He just ate (innings) for us the last time. You cant make him do it twice.Willson Contreras launched a three-run shot to cap a five-run second inning, and Javier Baez and Jorge Soler also went deep to make things easy for starter Jake Arrieta (14-5). Arrieta pitched one-run ball into the sixth inning and gave up four hits overall.Szczur, who recorded his first multihomer game, and Kris Bryant had three hits each.Stephen Piscotty and Jedd Gyorko homered for the Cardinals, who remain in a tight race for the second NL wild card despite dropping six of their last nine.Arrieta delivered a second straight solid start in August after going 0-3 with two no-decisions and a 4.88 ERA in July. The reigning NL Cy Young winner pitched eight shutout innings at Oakland last Saturday.The Cubs jumped on Wainwright early. Line-drive doubles by Bryant and Addison Russell drove in runs in the first to make it 2-0.Bryant hit another RBI double in the second and Contreras sent his seventh homer halfway up into the bleachers in left-center to make it 7-0.Szczur and Soler hit solo homers in the sixth off Jerome Williams, who was called on to pitch three innings. Szczur and Baez added two-run shots in the seventh before Gyorko connected in the eighth.TRAINERS ROOMCardinals: OF Matt Holliday had his broken right thumb examined by the teams hand specialist in Chicago. He was replaced in left field by Brandon Moss.Holliday will decide next week on treatments including surgery or letting the injury heal on its own, according to GM John Mozeliak. Neither Matheny nor Mozeliak could offer a specific timetable for the sluggers return.It happens quite a bit, so you dont dwell on it, Matheny said of any emotional hangover. Youre not happy about losing any of your guys, but you dont let it carry into the next game, so I would say the answer is no.Cubs: OFs Dexter Fowler and Jason Heyward didnt start. Manager Joe Maddon said both got the day off following Thursday nights 11-inning win. ... RHP Trevor Cahill arrived at the Cubs clubhouse on Friday, but has not been activated from the DL after making six starts at Triple-A Iowa in a rehab stint (right knee tendinitis).UP NEXTCardinals: Luke Weaver, a 22-year-old righty and one of the teams top pitching prospects, will make his major league debut on Saturday against Kyle Hendricks (11-7, 2.17), who is 7-1 with a 1.06 ERA in his last 10 outings. Weaver took Hollidays roster spot following his recall from Triple-A Memphis. Jaroslav Halak Jersey . -- Devin Hester is done returning kicks in Chicago.

Defencemen Drew Doughty, Shea Weber and forward Ryan Getzlaf also scored for the Canadians, who started their gold-medal defence 2-0. Goalie Roberto Luongo, getting the call in place of Game 1 starter Carey Price, was solid when needed in making 23 saves for the shutout. Thomas Hickey Jersey . -- The Magic have their first victory of the new year. Christopher Gibson Jersey . The 19-year-old Olsen played 34 games with the Kelowna Rockets of the WHL this season. In that time, hes recorded 17 goals and 17 assists with 36 penalty minutes. ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- The Baltimore Orioles find themselves in a precarious position as they come to the Rays for a three-game series, three games back of the division lead and tied with Detroit for the American Leagues second wild card, so if it wasnt obvious, every win counts from here out.Win games. Its real simple, Orioles manager Buck Showalter said after a 5-2 loss to the Yankees on Sunday. We have to win games regardless of how we get there. I dont care how it looks or how it happens. We need to have more runs than them after nine innings, or 10 or 11 or 12 and so on. Its a pretty simple equation right now.Baltimore (74-62) faces the Rays (58-77) seven times in their next 13 games, so Tampa Bay can again play a major spoiler role, as they did this weekend in taking two of three games from division-leading Toronto.Tough one today. Came up a little short obviously, said Rays manager Kevin Cash after a 5-3 loss to Toronto, missing out on a potential sweep. There were probably a couple more opportunities we didnt get.Mondays opener -- a Labor Day 1:10 p.m. first pitch -- pits Baltimore RHP Ubaldo Jimenez (5-11, 6.46 ERA) against Rays RHP Matt Andriese (6-6, 4.19 ERA).Andriese opened the year 6-0 but has struggled since rejoining the rotation after the trade deadline -- the Rays are committed to keeping him in what is now a six-maan rotation, but hes 0-6 with a 5.dddddddddddd47 ERA in his last 14 appearances, including seven starts.In his last start, he reset career highs for runs (7) and hits (10) allowed, including seven extra-base hits in a loss to Boston. For his career against the Orioles, hes 0-2 with a 7.04 ERA.Whats worse, Jimenez has a strong history against the Rays, with a 2.87 ERA and 4-2 career record, striking out 36 batters in 37.2 innings. In his only outing against Tampa Bay this year, he took a tough-luck loss in a 3-1 loss in April.The Rays are relegated to spoiler status in a division they long since stopped being competitive in. Baltimore is in a different mode, struggling to stay close enough to take advantage of remaining head-to-head series against the Blue Jays and Red Sox.Whether were playing here or in Tampa or in Detroit or in Boston, were always playing people, Showalter said of the target on his teams back. Theres never a time theyre not engaged. Tampa is in a spot, you can see how theyre playing right now. Detroits right there and of course Bostons there. Thats why you do all the things that we do to be a part of this. Enjoy the competition and enjoy the fruits of the players labor to get this chance.
