(AP) – A western Iowa cross country team is running to raise money for their coach’s son, who was diagnosed with a brain tumor.

The Exira-Elk Horn-Kimballton team has gathered pledges for each mile they run this fall.

The proceeds will benefit their coach, Terry Weisenborn, and his family. Weisenborn’s 2-year-old son, Hayden, has been diagnosed with a brain tumor.

The fundraiser was inspired by Julie Hays, the mother of runner Savannah Hays.

Savannah Hays said she thought the fundraising effort was a good way to help the coach.

CHICAGO (AP) — St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Jon Jay left the team due to a personal matter and missed Wednesday’s series finale with the Chicago Cubs, according to Cardinals manager Mike Matheny.

Jay is expected to rejoin the team Friday in Arizona when the Cardinals face the Diamondbacks. The Cardinals do not play Thursday.

Jay, who had an RBI in Tuesday’s loss to the Cubs, is batting .302 with 52 runs in 138 games this season.

The Cardinals currently lead the Pittsburgh Pirates by 1 1-2 games in the NL Central.

Peter Bourjos started in centerfield in Jay’s absence.

CHICAGO (AP) — Jake Arrieta pitched seven strong innings to outduel St. Louis’ John Lackey and lead the Chicago Cubs to a 3-1 victory over the Cardinals on Wednesday night.

Arrieta, coming off a one-hit shutout against Cincinnati last week, limited St. Louis to two hits and an unearned run while striking out 10. He also had a two-run triple in the fourth inning.

The Cardinals, who clinched a playoff berth earlier in the week, remained 1 1/2 games ahead of Pittsburgh in the NL Central. The Pirates lost at Atlanta, reducing St. Louis’ magic number to three for clinching the division title.

The Cardinals’ loss assured NL East champion Washington will open a division series at home.

Lackey gave up two runs and five hits in 6 2-3 innings. He struck out eight, his most since joining the Cardinals at the trade deadline.
