Ted Lilly wins his 14th of the season

Lilly pitched eight solid innings and survived a head-on collision at home plate as the Cubs took advantage of two errors by third baseman Felipe Lopez in a four-run second inning to beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 4-3, on Wednesday night.

Lilly (14-9), who lasted two innings in his last start, against the Reds, struck out five and gave up five hits over eight efficient innings to match his longest outing of the year.
