The Chicago Cubs trumped the Milwaukee Brewers, 6-1, at American Family Field. Chicago right fielder Willie de la Cruz was terrific. He was 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Chicago starter Omar Sarmiento was credited with the win after throwing 99 pitches over 7.1 innings. His record now stands at 11-11. The Cubs now have a record of 83-74 with the win over Milwaukee.

With Chicago leading 3-1 in the top of the fifth, de la Cruz hit a sinker from Branden Turner for a 2-run home run. It was his 38th home run of the season and put the Cubs ahead, 5-1.

"Our approach was just to try to see something over the plate and be aggressive," de la Cruz told the Chicago Daily.
