He allowed no earned runs on 6 hits, while walking 2 and striking out 5. On the season, he is now 7-8. Chicago, at 48-65, occupies third place in the National League Central Division.

With Chicago leading 1-0 in the bottom of the second, Lowe hit a changeup from Chad Kuhl for a 2-run home run. It was his 8th home run of the season and put the Cubs ahead, 3-0.

"It was a good effort all around," said Lowe.
