Over 6.2 innings, he allowed 5 runs on 7 hits, with 2 walks and 6 strikeouts. The Cubs bumped their record to 66-57 with this latest triumph.

Jedd Gyorko chipped in for Chicago with a 2-run home run in the top of the second. For the game, the third baseman had 3 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 2 singles, 3 runs scored, and 2 RBI.

"It was a nice win for our side today," said Cubs manager Garrett Hansford. "Not perfect, but we'll take it."
