    Adam Wainwright was proud to pitch the 26th complete game of his career, no matter how long it went.

    "I'll take them however they give them to me," he said. "If the next one is a five-inning rainout, I'll take that one, too. I like going the distance. That's a notch on the belt. That's what we strive to do."

    Wainwright struck out 11 and pitched a three-hitter in going the full seven innngs, sending the St. Louis Cardinals over the Atlanta Braves 9-1 Sunday in the first game of a day-night doubleheader.
