Chicago picked up a win at Wrigley Field, toppling the Oakland Athletics, 3-1. Pitcher Tim Sparks was one of the reasons the Cubs triumphed. Chicago leads the National League Central Division by 3½ games.

The game was on the line with two out in the top of the eighth inning, but Dan Scott didn't flinch. With runners on 1st and 2nd and Oakland trailing 3-1, Scott retired Josh McCullar to end the threat. "Nothing to it," said Scott, with a wink.
