The Cubs and Cardinals will renew their rivalry at Wrigley Field this Fourth of July weekend, the perfect time and place for a midsummer divisional series.
The genesis of this rivalry dates back to 1885 when these organizations were called the Chicago White Stockings and St. Louis Browns. Since then, the franchises have met over 2,500 times — and since 1903, as the Cubs and Cardinals. Many call it the "Route 66 rivalry" or the "I-55 rivalry."
Two perennial playoff contenders, the Cubs and Cards always get up to play each other. Chicago will likely be the series favorite this time around, with a star-studded lineup that features prized offseason acquisition Kyle Tucker and MVP candidate Pete Crow-Armstrong. Craig Counsell's team has spent most of 2025 atop the NL Central.

Don't count the Cardinals out yet, though. This St. Louis club has a solid balance of trusty veterans — like Willson Contreras around Nolan Arenado — and young breakouts like Ivan Herrera and Victor Scott. A late-season surge is not out of the realm of possibilities for Oliver Marmol's squad.
